Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 22 ACMG points: 22P and 0B. PVS1PS3PM2PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000527.5(LDLR):​c.2478delC​(p.Val827SerfsTer102) variant causes a frameshift change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000684 in 1,461,848 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV005427667: An in vitro functional study using heterologous transfected CHO cells has shown that this variant causes either no detectable LDLR protein, or low levels of LDLR protein that is unable to bind the LDL ligand (PMID:7903864)." and additional evidence is available in ClinVar. Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. P826P) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

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]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 22 ACMG points.

PVS1
Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
PS3
PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV005427667: An in vitro functional study using heterologous transfected CHO cells has shown that this variant causes either no detectable LDLR protein, or low levels of LDLR protein that is unable to bind the LDL ligand (PMID: 7903864).; SCV000709936: Functional studies show that the c.2478delC variant results in either no detectable LDLR protein, or low levels of LDLR protein that is unable to bind the LDL ligand (Sun et al., 1994).; SCV001214561: Experimental studies have shown that this premature translational stop signal affects LDLR function (PMID: 7903864).; SCV002737489: in vitro studies suggested that it would affect LDLR protein expression or stability (Sun, 1994).
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
Variant 19-11129597-AC-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr19-11129597-AC-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 252342.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
