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]

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthAug 08, 2023This missense variant (also known as p.Asp630Asn in the mature protein) replaces aspartic acid with asparagine at codon 651 in the LDLR type B repeat 6 of the LDLR protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). A high-throughput functional study has shown that this variant may not cause a significant impact to LDL uptake (PMID: 25647241). This variant has been reported in over 10 individuals affected with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 15241806, 15890894, 30312929; ClinVar SCV000540849.1, SCV002318907.1, SCV000503436.1, SCV001221619.4; Color internal data). It has also been reported in an individual affected with early-onset myocardial infarction (PMID: 25487149). This variant has also been observed in compound heterozygous state in an individual affected with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 29396260), indicating that this variant contributes to disease. This variant has been identified in 1/251464 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Likely pathogenic, reviewed by expert panelcurationClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Variant Curation Expert PanelMar 20, 2023The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.1951G>A (p.Asp651Asn) variant is classified as Likely pathogenic for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying evidence codes PS4_Moderate, PM2, PP1, and PP4 as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation guidelines (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gim.2021.09.012). The supporting evidence is as follows: PS4_Moderate: Variant meets PM2 and is identified in 8 unrelated index cases (1 case with Simon-Broome criteria of possible FH and 1 case with Simon-Broome criteria of definite FH from Molecular Genetics Laboratory (Centre for Cardiovascular Surgery and Transplantation), 2 cases with Simon-Broome criteria of possible FH and 1 case with DLCN>6 from Centre de Génétique Moléculaire et Chromosomique, Unité de génétique de l'Obésité et des Dyslipidémies, and 3 cases in PMID 15241806 (Mozas P et al., 2004)). So PS4_Moderate is met. PM2: PopMax MAF = 0.00001 (0.001%) in European (Non-Finnish) exomes+genomes (gnomAD v2.1.1). So PM2 is met. PP1: Variant segregates with FH phenotype in 3 informative meioses identified by Centre de Génétique Moléculaire et Chromosomique, Unité de génétique de l'Obésité et des Dyslipidémies. So PP1 is met. PP4: Variant meets PM2 and is identified in2 unrelated index cases who fulfill clinical criteria for FH (see PS4 for details). So PP4 is met. -

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testing3billionMar 22, 2022Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported to be associated with LDLR related disorder (PMID:15241806). A different missense change at the same codon has been reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence (ClinVar ID: VCV000252127,VCV000252128, PMID:16389549,19318025). In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product (REVEL: 0.697>=0.6, 3CNET: 0.97>=0.75). The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.000004). Therefore, this variant is classified as likely pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -
Familial hypercholesterolemia Pathogenic:3
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 27, 2023This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 651 of the LDLR protein (p.Asp651Asn). This variant is present in population databases (rs730882110, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal dominant and autosomal recessive LDLR-related conditions (PMID: 15241806, 25487149, 29396260, 30312929; Invitae). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as p.D630N. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 183128). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt LDLR protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on LDLR function (PMID: 25647241). This variant disrupts the p.Asp651 amino acid residue in LDLR. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with LDLR-related conditions (PMID: 16389549, 19318025), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMay 19, 2016Variant summary: The LDLR c.1951G>A (p.Asp651Asn) variant involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide and is located in 'precursor homology' domain. 3/4 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome (SNPs&GO not captured due to low reliability index). This variant was found in 1/131578 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000076, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic LDLR variant (0.0012508). This variant has been found in three apparently non-related FH patients (Mozas_2004) as well as in one patient with myocardial infarction (Do_2015). Other missense changes at this codon such as Asp651Tyr has also been detected in FH patients, suggesting that the codon may be a mutational hot-spot. Taken together, it variant has been classified as a Probable Disease Variant (or likely pathogenic). -

Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsFeb 10, 2023The p.D651N variant (also known as c.1951G>A), located in coding exon 13 of the LDLR gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1951. The aspartic acid at codon 651 is replaced by asparagine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration, which is also known as p.D630N, was reported in a Spanish familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) cohort, and was found by exome sequencing in individuals with myocardial infarction; however, clinical details were limited (Mozas P et al. Hum Mutat. 2004;24:187; Do R et al. Nature. 2015;518:102-6; Thormaehlen AS et al. PLoS Genet. 2015;11:e1004855). This amino acid position is highly 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. -
