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]

Familial hypercholesterolemia Pathogenic:1Benign:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 17, 2023This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 271 of the LDLR protein (p.Val271Ile). This variant is present in population databases (rs749220643, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 26036859, 29233637, 30293936, 33994402; Invitae). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 189297). 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 not expected to disrupt LDLR protein function with a negative 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. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpOct 23, 2023Variant summary: LDLR c.811G>A (p.Val271Ile) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.4e-05 in 251456 control chromosomes. c.811G>A at a heterozygous state has been reported in the literature in several individuals affected with Hypercholesterolemia, or Coronary Aartery Disease and Myocardial Infarction with elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterollevels (examples, Branne_2016, Huang_2020, Tomar_2022, Martin-Campos_2018). Particularly, Branne_2016 reported this variant in three siblings, two of whom were diagnosed with Coronary Aartery Disease and Myocardial Infarction, and the rest carrier remained unaffected with elevated LDLC levels. However, other studies evaluated this variant insignificant or Likely benign. These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with autosomal dominant or autosomal recessive Hypercholesterolemia. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 26036859, 33994402, 30293936, 35130036). One submitter has cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and has classified the variant as likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic. -
