Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PS4_ModeratePM3PP1_ModeratePM2PP3PP4

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.1277T>C (p.Leu426Pro) variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying ACMG/AMP evidence codes PS4_Moderate, PM2, PM3, PP1_Moderate, PP3 and PP4 as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation guidelines (specification version 1.2) on January 31, 2025. The supporting evidence is as follows: PM2: PopMax MAF = 0.00002229 (0.0022%) in East Asian exomes (gnomAD v4.1.0). So, PM2 is met. PP3: REVEL=0.883. It is above 0.75, so PP3 is met. PS4_Moderate, PP4: Variant meets PM2 and is identified in 9 unrelated index cases (2 cases with DLCN score >=6 from Centre de Génétique Moléculaire et Chromosomique, Unité de génétique de l'Obésité et des Dyslipidémies, France; 5 cases with definite FH by DLCN criteria from U4M - Lille University & CHRU Lille, Université de Lille, France, published on ClinVar; 1 case with possible/definite FH by Simon-Broome criteria in PMID 33269076 (Miroshnikova et al., 2021); 1 case with DLCN score 9 in PMID 9763532 (Mak et al., 1998)). PP1_Moderate: Variant segregates with FH phenotype in 4 informative meioses in 1 family from Centre de Génétique Moléculaire et Chromosomique, Unité de génétique de l'Obésité et des Dyslipidémies, France: 4 affected family members have the variant.PM3: A homozygous proband is reported from Centre de Génétique Moléculaire et Chromosomique, Unité de génétique de l'Obésité et des Dyslipidémies with LDL of 860 mg/dL.

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]
MIR6886 (HGNC:50121): (microRNA 6886) microRNAs (miRNAs) are short (20-24 nt) non-coding RNAs that are involved in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression in multicellular organisms by affecting both the stability and translation of mRNAs. miRNAs are transcribed by RNA polymerase II as part of capped and polyadenylated primary transcripts (pri-miRNAs) that can be either protein-coding or non-coding. The primary transcript is cleaved by the Drosha ribonuclease III enzyme to produce an approximately 70-nt stem-loop precursor miRNA (pre-miRNA), which is further cleaved by the cytoplasmic Dicer ribonuclease to generate the mature miRNA and antisense miRNA star (miRNA*) products. The mature miRNA is incorporated into a RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC), which recognizes target mRNAs through imperfect base pairing with the miRNA and most commonly results in translational inhibition or destabilization of the target mRNA. The RefSeq represents the predicted microRNA stem-loop. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]
