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 Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 9 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a strand (size 5) in uniprot entity LDLR_HUMAN there are 14 pathogenic changes around while only 0 benign (100%) in NM_000527.5
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.968
• PP5: Variant 19-11113648-C-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr19-11113648-C-A is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 251863.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_pathogenic=1, Uncertain_significance=1}. Variant chr19-11113648-C-A is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic].

The p.T491N variant (also known as c.1472C>A), located in coding exon 10 of the LDLR gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 1472. The threonine at codon 491 is replaced by asparagine, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant was reported in three individuals from a hypercholesterolemia cohort, including one compound heterozygous case with cutaneous findings and significantly reduced LDLR activity in cultured skin fibroblasts (Bertolini S et al. Atherosclerosis, 2013 Apr;227:342-8). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
