Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP3_Strong PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.1864G>A(p.Asp622Asn) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000684 in 1,461,870 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. D622G) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

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 18 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 10 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 11 uncertain 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 chr19-11120111-A-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 252093.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.995
• PP5: Variant 19-11120110-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr19-11120110-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 252092.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr19-11120110-G-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic]. Variant chr19-11120110-G-A is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic].

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	First Hospital of Lanzhou University, Lanzhou University	Feb 23, 2024	A 38-year-old female proband carried a compliant heterozygous variant (c.292G>A,c.1864G> A and c.1448G> A, according to the ACMG guidelines they were separately classified as Uncertain significance, Likely pathogenic and pathogenic).The proband presented with a xanthoma, corneal aneurysm, and coronary artery diseaseThe patient's serum cholesterol concentration remained greater than 13 mmol/L after receiving intensive statin, Evolocumab and Inclisiran therapy.We speculate that the hepatocytes of the proband indicate the almostly absence of LDLR. The proband's mother, sister, and son all carried the c.292G>A,c.1864G> A variant. The proband father, both brothers and daughter carried the c.1448G> A variant. Without exception, all of her relatives showed hypercholesterolemia, but no atherosclerosis, xanthoma, or corneal aneurysm in the other relatives except the proband. Pedigree co-segregation evidence suggests that the three variants may be pathogenic variants in this familial hypercholesterolemic family. -

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Asp662 amino acid residue in LDLR. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in affected individuals (PMID: 15701167, 16159606, 22698793), suggesting that it is a clinically significant residue. As a result, variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be causative of disease. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change decreases LDL binding and uptake (PMID: 28645073). This variant has been observed in several individuals affected with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 15701167, 27824480, 28645073, 22698793, Invitae. This variant is also known as p.D601N in the literature. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 252092). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces aspartic acid with asparagine at codon 622 of the LDLR protein (p.Asp622Asn). The aspartic acid residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between aspartic acid and asparagine. -
