Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PM2 PP3 PP1 PP4 PS4_Supporting PM1 PM3

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.265T>C (p.Cys89Arg) variant is classified as Likely pathogenic for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying evidence codes PM1, PM2, PM3, PS4_Supporting, PP1, PP3 and PP4 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: PM1 - Variant meets PM2 and alters Cys89, one of the cysteine residues listed, so PM1 is Met.PM2 - This variant is absent from gnomAD (gnomAD v2.1.1), so PM2 is Met.PM3 - Variant meets PM2 and is identified in an index case with homozygous FH phenotype (LDL = 18.05 mmol/L) and LDLR variant c.1775G>A/p.(Gly592Glu), classified as Pathogenic by these guidelines, in trans, from ltaly (PMID:9974426), so PM3 is Met.PS4_Supporting - Variant meets PM2 and is identified in 5 unrelated index cases: 1 index case with possible FH (Simon-Broome criteria) from Cardiovascular Research Group, Instituto Nacional de Saude Doutor Ricardo Jorge, at least 1 index case with definite heterozygous FH from The Netherlands (PMID:16250003), 1 index case fulfilling MedPed criteria for FH from Spain (PMID:16627557), 2 index cases fulfilling WHO criteria for FH from Poland (PMID:20145306), so PS4_Supporting is Met.PP1 - Variant segregates with FH phenotype in 3 informative meiosis from 1 family from Cardiovascular Research Group, Instituto Nacional de Saude Doutor Ricardo Jorge: 2 affected family members have the variant and 1 non-affected family member does not have the variant, so PP1 is Met.PP3 - REVEL = 0.973. It is above 0.75, so PP3 is Met.PP4 - Variant meets PM2 and is identified in 5 unrelated index cases fulfilling clinical criteria for FH from several labs (see PS4 for details), so PP4 is Met.

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]

Likely pathogenic, reviewed by expert panel	curation	ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Variant Curation Expert Panel	Mar 25, 2022	The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.265T>C (p.Cys89Arg) variant is classified as Likely pathogenic for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying evidence codes PM1, PM2, PM3, PS4_Supporting, PP1, PP3 and PP4 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: PM1 - Variant meets PM2 and alters Cys89, one of the cysteine residues listed, so PM1 is Met. PM2 - This variant is absent from gnomAD (gnomAD v2.1.1), so PM2 is Met. PM3 - Variant meets PM2 and is identified in an index case with homozygous FH phenotype (LDL = 18.05 mmol/L) and LDLR variant c.1775G>A/p.(Gly592Glu), classified as Pathogenic by these guidelines, in trans, from ltaly (PMID: 9974426), so PM3 is Met. PS4_Supporting - Variant meets PM2 and is identified in 5 unrelated index cases: 1 index case with possible FH (Simon-Broome criteria) from Cardiovascular Research Group, Instituto Nacional de Saude Doutor Ricardo Jorge, at least 1 index case with definite heterozygous FH from The Netherlands (PMID: 16250003), 1 index case fulfilling MedPed criteria for FH from Spain (PMID: 16627557), 2 index cases fulfilling WHO criteria for FH from Poland (PMID: 20145306), so PS4_Supporting is Met. PP1 - Variant segregates with FH phenotype in 3 informative meiosis from 1 family from Cardiovascular Research Group, Instituto Nacional de Saude Doutor Ricardo Jorge: 2 affected family members have the variant and 1 non-affected family member does not have the variant, so PP1 is Met. PP3 - REVEL = 0.973. It is above 0.75, so PP3 is Met. PP4 - Variant meets PM2 and is identified in 5 unrelated index cases fulfilling clinical criteria for FH from several labs (see PS4 for details), so PP4 is Met. -
