Genes affected

PCSK9 (HGNC:20001): (proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9) This gene encodes a member of the subtilisin-like proprotein convertase family, which includes proteases that process protein and peptide precursors trafficking through regulated or constitutive branches of the secretory pathway. The encoded protein undergoes an autocatalytic processing event with its prosegment in the ER and is constitutively secreted as an inactive protease into the extracellular matrix and trans-Golgi network. It is expressed in liver, intestine and kidney tissues and escorts specific receptors for lysosomal degradation. It plays a role in cholesterol and fatty acid metabolism. Mutations in this gene have been associated with autosomal dominant familial hypercholesterolemia. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2014]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -9 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.81).
• BP6: Variant 1-55052799-A-G is Benign according to our data. Variant chr1-55052799-A-G is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 536214.We mark this variant Likely_benign, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_benign=2, Uncertain_significance=2}.
• BS2: High AC in GnomAd at 10 AD gene.

Hypercholesterolemia, autosomal dominant, 3 Uncertain:1 Benign:1

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina	Mar 30, 2018	This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -
