Invitae RCV002519853 SCV003443881 pathogenic Familial hypercholesterolemia 2022-09-27 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Cys698 amino acid residue in LDLR. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 11933210, 15241806, 29353225). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. This variant affects a cysteine residue located within an LDLRA or epidermal-growth-factor (EGF)-like domains of the LDLR protein. Cysteine residues in these domains have been shown to be involved in the formation of disulfide bridges, which are critical for protein structure and stability (PMID: 7548065, 7603991, 7979249). In addition, missense substitutions within the LDLRA and EGF-like domains affecting cysteine residues are overrepresented among patients with hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 18325082). Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects LDLR function (PMID: 25741862). 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. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 252216). This variant is also known as p.C677F. This missense change has been observed in individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 16389549, 22698793, 31491741). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 698 of the LDLR protein (p.Cys698Phe).
