Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 5 ACMG points: 5P and 0B. PM2 PP4 PP3 PS4_Supporting

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.1640T>C (p.Leu547Pro) variant is classified as Uncertain significance - insufficient evidence for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying ACMG/AMP evidence codes PM2, PP3, PP4 and PS4_Supporting as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation guidelines (specification version 1.2) on 30 August 2024. The supporting evidence is as follows: PM2: MAF=8.477e-7 (0.000085%) in European (non-Finnish) exomes (gnomAD v4.1.0). PP3: REVEL=0.883. PS4_Supporting, PP4: Variant meets PM2 and is identified in at least 3 unrelated index cases who fulfill criteria for FH (1 case with DLCN score >=6 from Mayo Clinic Atherosclerosis and Lipid Genomics Laboratory, USA; 2 cases with DLCN score >=6 from Research Lab of Molecular Genetics of Lipid Metabolism, Italy).

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]
