Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 5 ACMG points: 5P and 0B. PS3_SupportingPM2PP4PS4_Supporting

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000527.5 (LDLR): c.895G>A (p.Ala299Thr) variant is classified as Uncertain significance - insufficient evidence for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying evidence codes (PM2, PP4, PS4_Supporting, PS3_Supporting) 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 Met: PopMAX MAF = 0.00005 in East Asian population in gnomAD (gnomAD v2.1.1).PP4 Met: This variant meets PM2 and is identified in > 1 index cases who met clinical criteria for FH after alternative causes for high cholesterol were excluded. PS4_Supporting Met: Variant meets PM2 and is identified in 2 unrelated index cases who fulfil DLCN criteria for FH (1 case from Unidad de Biof´ısica , Centro Mixto CSIC-UPV/EHU and Departamento de Bioqu´ımica, Universidad del Pa´ıs Vasco, Bilbao, Spain, PMID 21990180; 1 case from Lipid Clinic, Fundación Jiménez Díaz, Madrid, Spain, PMID 19318025).PS3_Supporting Met: Heterozygous patient lymphocytes FACS assays (level 3 functional assay) showed normal cell surface localization, but 50% LDL-LDLR uptake and binding (Etxebarria et al, Unidad de Biof´ısica, Centro Mixto CSIC-UPV/EHU and Departamento de Bioqu´ımica, Universidad del Pa´ıs Vasco, Bilbao, Spain, PMID 21990180).PP3 not met: REVEL score = 0.543, which is below the threshold of 0.75. This variant does not creating de novo acceptor or donor site and is not predicted to alter splicing.PM5 not met: There is one other variant in the same codon: LDLR: NM_000527:c.895G>T (p.Ala299Ser) is classified as Uncertain significance - insufficient evidence by these guidelines. Therefore PM5 is not met. LINK:https://erepo.genome.network/evrepo/ui/classification/CA10585179/MONDO:0007750/013

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]
