Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 6 ACMG points: 6P and 0B. PM2PS3
This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.898A>G (p.Arg300Gly) variant is classified as likely Pathogenic variant for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying evidence code PM2, PS3 and PS4 supporting as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation guidelines (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gim.2021.09.012).The supporting evidence is as follows:PM2_Met : PopMax MAF = 0.00003 in European (Non-Finnish) exomes (gnomAD v2.1.1)PS3_Met : Level 1 assay: Study of the whole LDLR cycle in Heterologous cells (CHO-ldlA7 cells), WB+FACS+CLSM. LDLR expression was not statistically different as compared to control. Conversely, LDL binding (<60%) and uptake (<60%) were significantly decreased (P<0.001). Interestingly, although the variant affects LDL binding and uptake, do not affect VLDL uptake. This reveals that the conformational change occurring in the module does not propagate to the whole ligand binding domain.

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health | Oct 02, 2023 | This missense variant (also known as p.Arg279Gly in the mature protein) replaces arginine with glycine at codon 300 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). Functional studies in LDLR-deficient cells indicated that this variant resulted in normal LDLR expression, but caused partial impairment (~50-60%) in LDL binding and uptake compared to wild-type LDLR (PMID: 25545329). This variant has been reported in over ten individuals affected with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 19446849, 23375686, 27578128, 27784735, 28965616, 30293936, 32757650; ClinVar SCV002572850.1; SCV000583755.1). This variant has been identified in 3/251386 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. - |

Likely pathogenic, reviewed by expert panel | curation | ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Variant Curation Expert Panel | Oct 28, 2022 | The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.898A>G (p.Arg300Gly) variant is classified as likely Pathogenic variant for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying evidence code PM2, PS3 and PS4 supporting as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation guidelines (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gim.2021.09.012). The supporting evidence is as follows: PM2_Met : PopMax MAF = 0.00003 in European (Non-Finnish) exomes (gnomAD v2.1.1) PS3_Met : Level 1 assay: Study of the whole LDLR cycle in Heterologous cells (CHO-ldlA7 cells), WB+FACS+CLSM. LDLR expression was not statistically different as compared to control. Conversely, LDL binding (<60%) and uptake (<60%) were significantly decreased (P<0.001). Interestingly, although the variant affects LDL binding and uptake, do not affect VLDL uptake. This reveals that the conformational change occurring in the module does not propagate to the whole ligand binding domain. (from PMID:25545329) - |
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | 3billion | Sep 01, 2022 | The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.001%). Functional studies provide strong evidence of the variant having a damaging effect on the gene or gene product (PMID: 25545329). In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product (REVEL: 0.56; 3Cnet: 0.98). Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported to be associated with LDLR -related disorder (ClinVar ID: VCV000251510 / PMID: 19318025). The variant has been observed in at least two similarly affected unrelated individuals (PMID: 25545329 , 28965616 / 3billion dataset). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. - |

Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Nov 17, 2023 | The p.R300G variant (also known as c.898A>G), located in coding exon 6 of the LDLR gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 898. The arginine at codon 300 is replaced by glycine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This alteration has been reported in individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) (Alonso R et al. Clin Biochem, 2009 Jun;42:899-903; Bertolini S et al. Atherosclerosis, 2013 Apr;227:342-8). Additionally, an in vitro assay showed this alteration may reduce protein function (Etxebarria A et al. Atherosclerosis, 2015 Feb;238:304-12). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. - |
