This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000527.5 (LDLR):c.1475A>G (p.Asp492Gly) variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying ACMG/AMP evidence codes PM2, PM5, PP3, PP4 and PS4_Supporting as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation guidelines (specification version 1.2) on 7 November 2023.The supporting evidence is as follows:PM2: Variant is absent from gnomAD (gnomAD v2.1.1).PP3: REVEL=0.994.PM5: Two other missense variants in the same codon: NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.1474G>A (p.Asp492Asn), ClinVar 161285, classified as Pathogenic by these guidelines; NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.1474G>C (p.Asp492His), ClinVar 251846, classified as Likely Pathogenic by these guidelines. Therefore PM5 is met.PS4_Supporting, PP4: Variant meets PM2 and is identified in 2 unrelated cases who fulfil DLCN criteria for FH clinical diagnosis: 1 case from PMID 16250003 (Fouchier et al., 2005), the Netherlands; 1 case from PMID 30270055 (Corral et al., 2018), Argentina.

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]

The NM_000527.5 (LDLR):c.1475A>G (p.Asp492Gly) variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying ACMG/AMP evidence codes PM2, PM5, PP3, PP4 and PS4_Supporting as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation guidelines (specification version 1.2) on 7 November 2023. The supporting evidence is as follows: PM2: Variant is absent from gnomAD (gnomAD v2.1.1). PP3: REVEL=0.994. PM5: Two other missense variants in the same codon: NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.1474G>A (p.Asp492Asn), ClinVar 161285, classified as Pathogenic by these guidelines; NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.1474G>C (p.Asp492His), ClinVar 251846, classified as Likely Pathogenic by these guidelines. Therefore PM5 is met. PS4_Supporting, PP4: Variant meets PM2 and is identified in 2 unrelated cases who fulfil DLCN criteria for FH clinical diagnosis: 1 case from PMID 16250003 (Fouchier et al., 2005), the Netherlands; 1 case from PMID 30270055 (Corral et al., 2018), Argentina.

In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Asp492 amino acid residue in LDLR. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 9763532, 11005141, 20236128, 25936317). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 251865). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 16250003, 30270055; Invitae). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 492 of the LDLR protein (p.Asp492Gly).
