This variant was found in 2/121480 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000165, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic LDLR variant (0.0012508). This variant has been reported in multiple affected FH patients including heterozygous patients and compound heterozygous patients (Mak_1998, Chiou_2010, Bertolini_2013, Blaha_2015). Variant was shown to segregate with disease in at least one of the reported families (Blaha_2015). Variants involving nearby nucleotides such as c.1474G>C, c.1474delG, c.1475A>G, etc, have been reported in affected individuals suggesting variant of interest is located in a mutiaotn hotspot. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as likely pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic.

Human Genome Sequencing Center Clinical Lab, Baylor College of Medicine	RCV000237459	SCV000839982	likely pathogenic	Familial hypercholesterolemia 1	2017-04-26	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This c.1474G>A (p.Asp492Asn) variant has been reported in a 42 year old male patient with familial hypercholesterolemia from a cohort of 30 patients [reported as D471N, FH Graz-1 in PMID 9763532]. This variant was also reported in a patient presenting with a total cholesterol level of 23 mmol/L and xanthomas [PMID 25936317]; this patient also carried a second allele (p.Gly592Glu), which is classified as pathogenic by our laboratory . This variant was further detected in a patient from a cohort of 2,078 patients from Italy [PMID 23375686]; this patient also carried a p.Cys698Trp variant, classified as a variant of unknown significance by our laboratory at this time. Additional variants affecting the same amino acid at position 492 (p.Asp492Gly and p.Asp492His) have been reported in patients with familial hypercholesterolemia [PMID 16250003, 10208479].This variant was reported in 2 heterozygous individuals in the ExAC database (http://exac.broadinstitute.org/variant/19-11224326-G-A). Asparagine at amino acid position 492 of the LDLR protein is highly conserved in mammals. While not validated for clinical use, the computer-based algorithms predict this p.Asp492Asn change to be deleterious. This variant is thus classified as likely pathogenic.

Invitae	RCV000590270	SCV000939301	pathogenic	Familial hypercholesterolemia	2019-11-11	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This sequence change replaces aspartic acid with asparagine at codon 492 of the LDLR protein (p.Asp492Asn). The aspartic acid residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between aspartic acid and asparagine. This variant is present in population databases (rs373646964, ExAC 0.003%). This variant has been observed to segregate with familial hypercholesterolemia in a family (PMID: 10230472). This variant has also been observed in several individuals with myocardial infarction (PMID: 25647241, 25487149) and many individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 9763532, 25936317, 20236128, 11005141, 23375686, 27680772, 22698793). This variant is also known as Asp471Asn and Graz-1. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 161285). A single experimental study showed that this missense change did not disrupt LDL uptake, but this has not been confirmed in additional studies (PMID: 25647241). This variant disrupts the p.Asp492 amino acid residue in LDLR. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with LDLR-related disease (PMID: 16250003, 10208479), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Please note that for diseases with clinical variability, or reduced penetrance, pathogenic variants may be present at a low frequency in the general population. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. The phenotype of a homozygous individual with this variant is highly specific for Familial Hypercholesterolemia based on xanthomas and family history consistent with disease (DOI: 10.2217/clp.14.6). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for Familial Hypercholesterolemia in an autosomal dominant manner based on multiple reports in individuals with Familial Hypercholesterolemia and cosegregation with disease.
