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]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 9 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 8 uncertain in NM_000527.5
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PM4
Nonframeshift variant in NON repetitive region in NM_000527.5. Strenght limited to Supporting due to length of the change: 1aa.
PP5
Variant 19-11105584-TGAC-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr19-11105584-TGAC-T is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 251390.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars. Variant chr19-11105584-TGAC-T is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic].
