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 Uncertain:3
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 27, 2021This sequence change replaces threonine with isoleucine at codon 742 of the LDLR protein (p.Thr742Ile). The threonine residue is weakly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between threonine and isoleucine. This variant is present in population databases (rs767546791, ExAC 0.002%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 11462246, 19837725). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 252259). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthJun 15, 2023This missense variant (also known as p.Thr721Ile in the mature protein) replaces threonine with isoleucine at codon 742 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). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in two individuals affected with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 11462246, 17142622) and in an individual affected with myocardial infarction (PMID: 34615865). This variant has been identified in 2/251326 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
