Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_StrongPP5_Moderate

The NM_000527.5(LDLR):​c.851G>A​(p.Cys284Tyr) 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. 12/21 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. C284G) 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]

The p.C284Y variant (also known as c.851G>A), located in coding exon 6 of the LDLR gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 851. The cysteine at codon 284 is replaced by tyrosine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties, and is located in LDLR class A repeat 7. Pathogenic LDLR mutations that result in the substitution or generation of cysteine residues within the cysteine-rich LDLR class A repeats and EGF-like domains are common in familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) (Villéger L. Hum Mutat. 2002;20(2):81-7). This particular cysteine alteration has been reported in one proband from a Chinese FH cohort (Li JJ et al. Arterioscler. Thromb. Vasc. Biol., 2017 Mar;37:570-579). This variant is also considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Internal structural analysis indicates this alteration eliminates a disulfide bond critical for the structural integrity of LDLR class A repeat 7 (Ambry internal data). Additional amino acid substitutions at this codon, p.C284R, p.C284S, and p.C284G, have also been reported in individuals with FH (Wang D et al. J. Hum. Genet., 2001;46:152-4; Leren TP et al. Semin Vasc Med, 2004 Feb;4:75-85; Fouchier SW et al. Hum. Mutat., 2005 Dec;26:550-6). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -
