Genes affected
LDLR (HGNC:6547): (low density lipoprotein receptor) The low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) gene family consists of cell surface proteins involved in receptor-mediated endocytosis of specific ligands. The encoded protein is normally bound at the cell membrane, where it binds low density lipoprotein/cholesterol and is taken into the cell. Lysosomes release the cholesterol, which is made available for repression of microsomal enzyme 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG CoA) reductase, the rate-limiting step in cholesterol synthesis. At the same time, a reciprocal stimulation of cholesterol ester synthesis takes place. Mutations in this gene cause the autosomal dominant disorder, familial hypercholesterolemia. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, May 2022]
MIR6886 (HGNC:50121): (microRNA 6886) microRNAs (miRNAs) are short (20-24 nt) non-coding RNAs that are involved in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression in multicellular organisms by affecting both the stability and translation of mRNAs. miRNAs are transcribed by RNA polymerase II as part of capped and polyadenylated primary transcripts (pri-miRNAs) that can be either protein-coding or non-coding. The primary transcript is cleaved by the Drosha ribonuclease III enzyme to produce an approximately 70-nt stem-loop precursor miRNA (pre-miRNA), which is further cleaved by the cytoplasmic Dicer ribonuclease to generate the mature miRNA and antisense miRNA star (miRNA*) products. The mature miRNA is incorporated into a RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC), which recognizes target mRNAs through imperfect base pairing with the miRNA and most commonly results in translational inhibition or destabilization of the target mRNA. The RefSeq represents the predicted microRNA stem-loop. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]

This missense variant (also known as p.Leu411Val in the mature protein) replaces leucine with valine at codon 432 of the LDLR protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have a deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). A functional study has shown that this variant does not disrupt LDLR function (PMID: 25647241). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 10090484, 15199436, 29396260, 35047021). It has also been reported in individuals affected with early-onset myocardial infarction (PMID: 25487149, 25647241) and in individuals affected with coronary artery disease (PMID: 27050191). This variant has been identified in 4/251290 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 432 of the LDLR protein (p.Leu432Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs730882100, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 10090484, 25487149, 25647241, 32770674, 35047021). This variant is also known as L411V. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 183111). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt LDLR protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: LDLR c.1294C>G (p.Leu432Val) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.6e-05 in 251290 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.1294C>G has been observed in individuals affected with FH, MI, and CAD, but all without strong evidence for causality (Ebhardt_1999, Leren_2004, Do_2015, Thormaehlen_2015, Khera_2016, Rieck_2020, Leren_2021, Rimbert_2022). In addition, LDLR-LOVD and British Heart Foundation classified this variant as likely pathogenic without evidence of independent evaluation. One published functional study showed that overexpression of p.Leu432Val resulted in intact cellular LDL uptake comparable to wild-type, although authors speculated that the compound heterozygosity of two variants (Y465N and L432V) could impair receptor activities in the range of a classic FH-mutant (Thormaehlen_2015). JoJo Genetics noted that this variant often co-occurs with Y465N (Y444N in legacy name) although the phase has not be determined. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 20045108, 25487149, 10090484, 27050191, 33740630, 15199436, 32770674, 35047021, 25647241). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 183111). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

The LDLR c.1294C>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Leu432Val. This variant has also been reported in individuals with hypercholesterolemia and in controls in different reports (Thormaehlen et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25647241; Do et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25487149). It was also found in one individual who harbored the c.1393T>A (p.Tyr465Asn) variant that is also found in this patient, and it was suggested that together the two variants may form a hypomorphic allele, but further studies to confirm they are on the same allele were not performed (Thormaehlen et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25647241). This variant is reported in 0.0065% of alleles in individuals of South Asian descent in gnomAD. This variant has been reported in ClinVar with interpretations of uncertain significance, likely pathogenic, and pathogenic (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/183111/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

The p.L432V variant (also known as c.1294C>G), located in coding exon 9 of the LDLR gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 1294. The leucine at codon 432 is replaced by valine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant (also referred to as L411V) has been detected in hypercholesterolemia cohorts, coronary artery disease cohorts, and myocardial infarction cohorts; however, in some cases, clinical detail was limited and/or the variant co-occurred with other variants in the LDLR gene, complicating interpretation of the impact of this variant alone (Ebhardt M et al. Hum. Mutat., 1999;13:257; Leren TP et al. Semin Vasc Med, 2004 Feb;4:75-85; Do R et al. Nature, 2015 Feb;518:102-6; Thormaehlen AS et al. PLoS Genet., 2015 Feb;11:e1004855; Khera AV et al. J. Am. Coll. Cardiol., 2016 06;67:2578-89; Hartgers ML et al. J Clin Lipidol Dec;12:390-396.e8; Rieck L et al. Clin Genet. 2020 Nov;98(5):457-467; Rimbert A et al. Front Genet. 2021 Jan;12:809256). An in vitro assay reported this variant to be non-disruptive to LDL uptake; however, additional evidence is needed to confirm this finding (Thormaehlen AS et al. PLoS Genet., 2015 Feb;11:e1004855). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
