Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 8 ACMG points: 8P and 0B. PS3 PM2 PP3 PP4

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.1750T>C (p.Ser584Pro) variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying ACMG/AMP evidence codes PS3, PM2, PP3 and PP4 as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation guidelines (specification version 1.2) on 28 March 2025.The supporting evidence is as follows:PM2: This variant is absent from gnomAD (gnomAD v4.1.0).PP3: REVEL = 0.86.PS3: Level 1 assays: PMID:32015373 (Galicia-Garcia et al., 2020): heterologous CHO-ldlA7 cells, cytometry assay, <20% surface LDLR, <10% LDL-LDLR binding, <10% uptake.---- results are below 70% of wild-type, so functional study is consistent with damaging effect.PP4: Variant meets PM2 and is identified in at least 1 index case fulfilling FH criteria (1 case with Dutch Lipid Clinic Network Criteria score ≥ 6 from PMID 19318025 (Alonso et al., 2009), Spain), after alternative causes of high cholesterol were excluded.

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]

Review Status: reviewed by expert panel

Collection Method: curation

The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.1750T>C (p.Ser584Pro) variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying ACMG/AMP evidence codes PS3, PM2, PP3 and PP4 as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation guidelines (specification version 1.2) on 28 March 2025. The supporting evidence is as follows: PM2: This variant is absent from gnomAD (gnomAD v4.1.0). PP3: REVEL = 0.86. PS3: Level 1 assays: PMID: 32015373 (Galicia-Garcia et al., 2020): heterologous CHO-ldlA7 cells, cytometry assay, <20% surface LDLR, <10% LDL-LDLR binding, <10% uptake. ---- results are below 70% of wild-type, so functional study is consistent with damaging effect. PP4: Variant meets PM2 and is identified in at least 1 index case fulfilling FH criteria (1 case with Dutch Lipid Clinic Network Criteria score = 6 from PMID 19318025 (Alonso et al., 2009), Spain), after alternative causes of high cholesterol were excluded. -
