Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PP3_Strong PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.1514G>A(p.Gly505Asp) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000684 in 1,461,888 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. G505A) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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 Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 6 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 3 benign, 12 uncertain in NM_000527.5
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.995
• PP5: Variant 19-11113690-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr19-11113690-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 251879.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr19-11113690-G-A is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic].

Variant summary: LDLR c.1514G>A (p.Gly505Asp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 251454 control chromosomes. c.1514G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals homozygous and heterozygous individuals affected with Familial Hypercholesterolemia (Lind_2002, Maglio_2014, Pavanello_2019). While both heterozygous and homozygous individuals displayed features including high cholesterol and cardiovascular disease, only some homozygotes had the full phenotype including Tendon xanthomas, leading authors to speculate the variant may result in a milder phenotype. Because of the presence of phenocopies in these patients with milder disease, this data cannot provide unequivocal conclusions about pathogenicity. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. One submitter has cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and has classified the variant as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
