Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 9 ACMG points: 9P and 0B. PS4PM2PP4PS3_Moderate

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.190+4A>T variant is classified as Likely pathogenic for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying evidence codes (PM2, PP4, PS4 and PS3_Moderate) 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 - PopMax MAF = 0.00020 (0.02%) in East Asian exomes+genomes (gnomAD v2.1.1).PP4 - Variant meets PM2. Variant identified in 11 unrelated index cases (1 case fulfilling Simon-Broome criteria published in PMID:21418584; 3 cases fulfilling Simon-Broome criteria published in PMID:20236128; 5 cases with Dutch lipid clinic network >=6 from Cardiovascular Genetics Laboratory (PathWest Laboratory Medicine WA); 1 case with Dutch lipid clinic network >=6 from Robarts Research Institute; 1 case with MedPed definite from Mayo Clinic Atherosclerosis and Lipid Genomics Laboratory.PS3_Moderate - Level 2 assays: PMID 19208450:Heterozygous patient cells, FACS/RT-PCR/Nothern blotting assays - result - 47% low-density lipoprotein particle receptor activity (LDLR activity reported as a mean value of cell-surface LDLR and LDL internalization measurements); aberrant transcript is not confirmed by sequencing (NMD expected) and is 40% of total transcripts.PS4 - Variant meets PM2. Variant identified in 11 unrelated index cases (1 case fulfilling Simon-Broome criteria published in PMID:21418584; 3 cases fulfilling Simon-Broome criteria published in PMID:20236128; 5 cases with Dutch lipid clinic network >=6 from Cardiovascular Genetics Laboratory (PathWest Laboratory Medicine WA); 1 case with Dutch lipid clinic network >=6 from Robarts Research Institute; 1 case with MedPed definite from Mayo Clinic Atherosclerosis and Lipid Genomics Laboratory.

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]
