Genes affected
VLDLR (HGNC:12698): (very 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. This gene encodes a lipoprotein receptor that is a member of the LDLR family and plays important roles in VLDL-triglyceride metabolism and the reelin signaling pathway. Mutations in this gene cause VLDLR-associated cerebellar hypoplasia. Alternative splicing generates multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms for this gene.

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.045766592 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 5.9, offset of 1, new splice context is: tgttcccttcttattctaAGgag. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
Variant 9-2635452-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr9-2635452-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 212565.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 1 of the VLDLR gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in VLDLR are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 18043714, 18326629, 22532556). This variant is present in population databases (rs770269674, gnomAD 0.002%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with VLDLR-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 212565). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. 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. -
