Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 5 ACMG points: 5P and 0B. PM2 PS4_Supporting PP4 PP1

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.1960C>T (p.Leu654Phe) variant is classified as Uncertain significance - insufficient evidence for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying ACMG/AMP evidence codes PM2, PP1, PP4 and PS4_Supporting as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation guidelines (specification version 1.2) on 28 October 2024.The supporting evidence is as follows:PM2: This variant is absent from gnomAD (gnomAD v4.1.0).PS4_Supporting, PP4: Variant meets PM2 and is identified in at least 3 index cases fulfilling Simon Broome criteria for possible FH criteria, after alternative causes of high cholesterol were excluded, from the Cardiovascular Research Group, Instituto Nacional de Saúde Doutor Ricardo Jorge, Portugal.PP1: Variant segregates with FH phenotype in at least 2 informative meioses from 1 family (Cardiovascular Research Group, Instituto Nacional de Saúde Doutor Ricardo Jorge, Portugal): 1 affected family member has the variant and 1 unaffected family member does not have the variant.

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]

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: reviewed by expert panel

Collection Method: curation

The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.1960C>T (p.Leu654Phe) variant is classified as Uncertain significance - insufficient evidence for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying ACMG/AMP evidence codes PM2, PP1, PP4 and PS4_Supporting as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation guidelines (specification version 1.2) on 28 October 2024. The supporting evidence is as follows: PM2: This variant is absent from gnomAD (gnomAD v4.1.0). PS4_Supporting, PP4: Variant meets PM2 and is identified in at least 3 index cases fulfilling Simon Broome criteria for possible FH criteria, after alternative causes of high cholesterol were excluded, from the Cardiovascular Research Group, Instituto Nacional de Saúde Doutor Ricardo Jorge, Portugal. PP1: Variant segregates with FH phenotype in at least 2 informative meioses from 1 family (Cardiovascular Research Group, Instituto Nacional de Saúde Doutor Ricardo Jorge, Portugal): 1 affected family member has the variant and 1 unaffected family member does not have the variant. -
