Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points: 0P and 5B. BP4_StrongBP6
The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.1359-3C>T variant causes a splice region, intron change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000806 in 1,613,674 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars).

Familial hypercholesterolemia Uncertain:1Benign:1
This sequence change falls in intron 9 of the LDLR gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the LDLR protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs775657243, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has been observed in individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 19007590; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 251810). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. 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. -
