Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine RCV000844731 SCV000271386 pathogenic Homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia 2015-12-21 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.Pro685Leu variant in LDLR, also described as p.Pro664Leu in the literature , has been reported in >40 individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH), segregated with disease in >40 affected relatives from at least 4 families, and was identified in the homozygous state in at least 10 individuals with FH (Berto lini 2013, Sharifi 2016, Medeiros 2010,Rubinsztein 1992, Soutar 1989, Soutar 199 1, Thormaehlen 2015, Van Der Graaf 2011). This variant has also been reported by other clinical laboratories in Clinvar (Variation ID 3702) and was identified i n 6/126656 European chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http ://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs28942084). However, this frequency is low enough to be consistent with the frequency of FH in the general population. In v itro functional studies provide some evidence that the p.Pro685Leu variant may i mpact protein function (Knight 1989, Rubinsztein 1992, Thormaehlen 2015). In sum mary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for familial hy percholesterolemia in an autosomal dominant manner based upon presence in multip le affected individuals, segregation studies, low frequency in controls and func tional evidence.

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000775085 SCV000627025 pathogenic Familial hypercholesterolemia 2024-01-17 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 685 of the LDLR protein (p.Pro685Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs28942084, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 2726768, 11031227, 12124988, 15359125, 18718593, 21382890, 23155708, 23375686, 23669246). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as p.Pro664Leu. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 3702). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt LDLR protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects LDLR function (PMID: 19013141). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV000775085 SCV000909189 pathogenic Familial hypercholesterolemia 2023-10-12 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This missense variant replaces proline with leucine at codon 685 of the EGF-like repeat C in the EGF precursor homology domain of the LDLR protein. This variant is also known as p.Pro664Leu in the mature 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). Functional assays have demonstrated that the variant protein shows defective processing, accelerated turnover, reduced cell surface expression and impaired LDLR activity (PMID: 1464748, 25647241, 2920733, 3816797). This variant has been reported in over 200 individuals affected with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 7583548, 9763532, 1464748, 1493640, 15199436, 1884514, 19318025, 19446849, 20828696, 21310417, 21382890, 22390909, 23375686, 23680767, 26343872, 26892515, 33740630, 34456200, 35052492, 36422519). It has been shown that this variant segregates with disease in multiple affected individuals across two large families (PMID: 1493640, 1830890, 2726768). This variant has been identified in 9/282638 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). A different variant affecting the same codon, p.Pro685Ser, is considered to be disease-causing (ClinVar variation ID: 252194), suggesting that proline at this position is important for LDLR protein function. Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000775085 SCV001372293 pathogenic Familial hypercholesterolemia 2020-06-10 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: LDLR c.2054C>T (p.Pro685Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the EGF-like domain (IPR000742) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.8e-05 in 251236 control chromosomes. c.2054C>T has been extensively reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Familial Hypercholesterolemia (example, Tichy_2012, Bertolini_2013, Soutar_1989, Futema_2013). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Several publications report experimental evidence evaluating an impact on LDL-receptor activity (example, Bertolini_2013, Bertolini_1999, Knight_1989). The most pronounced variant effect results in 10%-<30% of normal activity. Twelve clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic (n=9)/likely pathogenic (n=3). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

Additionally, functional studies indicate that this variant is damaging to LDL receptor function (PMID: 25647241 (2015), 19013141 (2009), 18718593 (2009)). This variant has also been reported to segregate with hypercholesterolemia in multiple families (PMID: 23155708 (2012), 18718593 (2009), 2726768 (1989)). Therefore, the variant is classified as pathogenic.

Ambry Genetics RCV002415395 SCV002728264 pathogenic Cardiovascular phenotype 2023-06-30 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.2054C>T (p.P685L) alteration is located in exon 14 (coding exon 14) of the LDLR gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2054, causing the proline (P) at amino acid position 685 to be replaced by a leucine (L). Based on data from gnomAD, the T allele has an overall frequency of 0.003% (9/282638) total alleles studied. The highest observed frequency was 0.012% (3/24966) of African alleles. This alteration (also referred to as p.P664L) has been described in multiple individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia from varying ethnic backgrounds, including homozygous and compound heterozygous cases, and has been reported to segregate with disease in several families (Soutar, 1989; King-Underwood, 1991; Defesche, 1992; Maruyama, 1995; Mak, 1998; Leren, 2004; Alonso, 2009; Guardamagna, 2009; Medeiros, 2010; Shin, 2015). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. This alteration has been reported to result in defective LDLR activity in studies of patient derived cells (Knight, 1989; King-Underwood, 1991; Tada, 2009). This alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic.

This variant is also reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 3702). Furthermore, functional analyses demonstrate an affect of this variant on protein function (Rubinsztein 1992, Tada 2009, Thormaehlen 2015). This variant is found in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.003% (9/282638 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The proline at codon 685 is highly conserved, and computational analyses predict that this variant is deleterious (REVEL: 0.883). Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Cheng X et al.
