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]

Uncertain significance, reviewed by expert panelcurationClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Variant Curation Expert PanelApr 30, 2022NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.709C>T (p.Arg237Cys) variant is classified as Uncertain significance - insufficient evidence for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying evidence code PM2, PS4_Moderate 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: PM2 - PopMax MAF = 0.00009799 (0.01%) in South Asian exomes (gnomAD v2.1.1). PS4_Supporting - Variant meets PM2 and is reported in 3 unrelated index cases, two with possible SB criteria (PMID 20236128 and Molecular Genetics Laboratory (Centre for Cardiovascular Surgery and Transplantation)), one with DLCN >= 6 criteria (PMID 30293936).

Familial hypercholesterolemia Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 23, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 237 of the LDLR protein (p.Arg237Cys). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 20236128, 25463123, 30293936; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 251421). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt LDLR protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
