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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthNov 20, 2023This missense variant (also known as p.Thr638Asn in the mature protein) replaces threonine with asparagine at codon 659 of the LDLR protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have a deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). An experimental functional study using LDLR-deficient CHO-ldlA7 cells has shown that this variant does not cause a significant impact on LDLR expression (PMID: 32015373). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 15199436, 23833242). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Familial hypercholesterolemia Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpAug 09, 2022In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect LDLR function (PMID: 2015373). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 252141). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with LDLR-related conditions (PMID: 15199436, 23833242). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 659 of the LDLR protein (p.Thr659Asn). -
