Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PS3PM1PM5PP2PP3PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000527.5(LDLR):​c.2389G>A​(p.Val797Met) variant causes a missense, splice region change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000434 in 1,613,688 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 2/3 splice prediction tools predicting alterations to normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV005427660: "In vitro functional studies have shown that this variant causes a reduction in LDLR internalization and expression at the cellular membrane (PMID:34497632)."" and additional evidence is available in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. V797L) has been classified as Likely pathogenic. The gene LDLR is included in the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry.

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 18 ACMG points.

PS3
PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV005427660: "In vitro functional studies have shown that this variant causes a reduction in LDLR internalization and expression at the cellular membrane (PMID: 34497632)."; SCV006101202: "Well-established in vitro or in vivo functional studies supportive of a damaging effect on the gene or gene product."; SCV000589577: Functional splice studies of a different variant at this same nucleotide position (c.2389 G>T, p.V797L) demonstrate skipping of exon 16, further supporting the functional importance of this nucleotide position (PMID: 28169869);; SCV002047264: In addition, this variant is located at an exon-intron junction and an RT-PCR study suggests the variant may affect LDLR mRNA splicing (PMID: 9763532 (1998)).; SCV000904109: "In vitro functional studies have shown that this variant causes a reduction in LDLR internalization and expression at the cellular membrane (PMID: 34497632)."; SCV000731742: This variant has been shown to cause altered splicing leading to absent protein (Mak 1998).
PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 6 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 3 benign, 16 uncertain in NM_000527.5
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr19-11128085-G-C is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 565983.
PP2
Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 678 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 92 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 0.12407 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 0.59338 (below the threshold of 3.09).
