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]

Variant summary: LDLR c.694+8_694+18del11 alters a nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. Consensus agreement among computation tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.6e-05 in 1153438 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0006 within the South Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database (v4), including 1 homozygotes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in LDLR causing Familial Hypercholesterolemia (4.6e-05 vs 0.0013), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.694+8_694+18del11 has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Familial Hypercholesterolemia (Aruljothi_2016) without evidence for causality. These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Familial Hypercholesterolemia. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 26927322). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 630368). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
