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

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 5 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 14 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 8 uncertain in ENST00000558518.6
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM4: Nonframeshift variant in NON repetitive region in ENST00000558518.6. Strenght limited to Supporting due to length of the change: 1aa.

This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant, c.1460_1462delACA, results in the deletion of 1 amino acid(s) of the LDLR protein (p.Asn487del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 7635482). This variant is also known as deltaN466 in the literature. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 251854). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available for this variant, and the functional significance of the deleted amino acid is currently unknown. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
