Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PS1PM1PM2PM5PP3_StrongPP5_Moderate

The NM_000527.5(LDLR):​c.478T>A​(p.Cys160Ser) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★). Another nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as Likely pathogenicin ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. C160Y) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

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]
