Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP3_Strong PP5_Moderate

The NM_000527.5(LDLR):​c.1736A>C​(p.Asp579Ala) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. 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. D579E) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

• Frequency: Genomes: not found (cov: 32)
• Consequence: LDLR NM_000527.5 missense
• Clinical Significance: Likely pathogenic criteria provided, single submitter P:1

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 12 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a strand (size 5) in uniprot entity LDLR_HUMAN there are 21 pathogenic changes around while only 0 benign (100%) in NM_000527.5
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr19-11116890-C-G is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic].
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.996
• PP5: Variant 19-11116889-A-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr19-11116889-A-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 252007.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars. Variant chr19-11116889-A-C is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic].
