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]

The c.518delG pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 4 of the LDLR gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 518, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.C173Sfs*33). This alteration has been reported in individuals with hypercholesterolemia (Cenarro A et al. Clin. Genet., 1996 Apr;49:180-5; Huijgen R et al. Eur. Heart J., 2012 Sep;33:2325-30). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
