Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 1 ACMG points: 2P and 1B. PM2 BP4

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.240C>A (p.Asn80Lys)variant is classified as Uncertain significance - insufficient evidence for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying evidence code PM2, BP4 as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation guidelines (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gim.2021.09.012). The supporting evidence is as follows:PM2 - This variant is absent from gnomAD (gnomAD v2.1.1) BP4 - REVEL = 0.389. It is below 0.50. splicing evaluation required. Functional data not availableA) not on limitsB) does not create AG or GTVariant is not predicted to alter splicing LINK:https://erepo.genome.network/evrepo/ui/classification/CA10584802/MONDO:0007750/013

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]

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This missense variant replaces asparagine with lysine at codon 80 in the LDLR type A repeat 2 ligand binding domain of the LDLR protein. This variant is also known as p.Asn59Lys in the mature protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in a few individuals affected with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 15241806, 27784735). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
