Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PS4PM3PM2PP1PP4

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.1916T>A (p.Val639Asp) variant is classified as Pathogenic for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying ACMG/AMP evidence codes PS4, PM2, PM3, PP1 and PP4 as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation guidelines (specification version 1.2) on January 31, 2025. The supporting evidence is as follows:PM2: This variant is absent from gnomAD (gnomAD v4.1.0).PS4, PP4: Variant meets PM2 and is identified in 10 unrelated index cases from different labs (2 cases with DLCN>=6 from Centre de Génétique Moléculaire et Chromosomique, Unité de génétique de l'Obésité et des Dyslipidémies, France; 1 case with DLCN>=6 from Service de Biochimie et de Biologie Moléculaire, Hospices Civils de Lyon, Lyon, France; 1 case with DLCN>=6 from Molecular Genetics Laboratory, Centre for Cardiovascular Surgery and Transplantation, Czech Republic; 1 case with DLCN=9 from Germany (PMID 11462246 – Nauck et al., 2001); at least 1 case with definite FH from The Netherlands (PMID 16250003 – Fouchier et al., 2005); 1 case with DLCN>=6 from Argentina (PMID 28502510 – Bañares et al., 2017); 1 case with Simon Broome criteria for FH from Poland (PMID 35741760 – Rutkowska et al. 2022); 1 true homozygous case with clinical diagnosis of HoFH from Spain (PMID 27784735); 1 case with homozygous FH phenotype (LDL-C= 13.52 mmol/L) from Germany (PMID 29502162).PP1: Variant segregates with FH phenotype in 2 informative meiosis from 1 family from Molecular Genetics Laboratory, Centre for Cardiovascular Surgery and Transplantation, Czech Republic: 2 affected family members have the variant.PM3: Variant meets PM2 and is identified in 1 index case with homozygous FH phenotype (LDL-C=11.7 mmol/L) and LDLR c. 2043C>T/p.(Cys681*), classified as Pathogenic by these guidelines, in trans, from Germany (PMID 29502162 – Klaus et al., 2018).

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]
