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 8 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a strand (size 5) in uniprot entity LDLR_HUMAN there are 8 pathogenic changes around while only 0 benign (100%) in NM_000527.5
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM4: Nonframeshift variant in NON repetitive region in NM_000527.5.
• PP3: No computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, but strongly conserved according to phyloP
• PP5: Variant 19-11116101-TACTGGACTG-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr19-11116101-TACTGGACTG-T is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 251928.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_pathogenic=1, Uncertain_significance=1}. Variant chr19-11116101-TACTGGACTG-T is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic].

This variant, c.1600_1608del, results in the deletion of 3 amino acid(s) of the LDLR protein (p.Thr534_Trp536del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal dominant familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 10422802). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as p.Thr513_Trp515del. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 251928). 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. -
