Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 4 ACMG points: 4P and 0B. PM2PP3PP4
This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.1555C>A (p.Pro519Thr) variant is classified as Uncertain significance - insufficient evidence for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying ACMG/AMP evidence codes PM2, PP3 and PP4 as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation (specification version 1.2) on 4 March 2025. The supporting evidence is as follows:PM2: This variant is absent from a distinct subpopulation in gnomAD v4.1.0 and is found in 1/62500 alleles in the Remaining subpopulation. PP3: REVEL = 0.778. PP4: Variant meets PM2 and is identified in at least 1 index case with DLCN score >=6 after alternative causes of high cholesterol were excluded (Cardiovascular Genetics Laboratory, PathWest Laboratory Medicine WA, Australia).

Familial hypercholesterolemia Uncertain:2
Variant of Uncertain Significance due to insufficient evidence: This missense variant (also known as p.Pro498Thr in the mature protein) is located in the LDLR type B repeat 3 of the EGF precursor homology domain of the LDLR protein. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may have deleterious impact on the protein function. Computational splicing tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional assays have not been performed for this variant nor has this variant been reported in individuals affected with familial hypercholesterolemia in the literature. This variant is rare in the general population and has been identified in 0/277264 chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. -
This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 519 of the LDLR protein (p.Pro519Thr). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with LDLR-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 226360). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. 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. -
