ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Variant Curation Expert Panel RCV000172965 SCV002817147 likely benign Hypercholesterolemia, familial, 1 2022-05-27 reviewed by expert panel curation The NM_000527.5(LDLR): c.2231G>A (p.Arg744Gln) variant is classified as Likely benign for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying evidence codes BP4, BP2 and PS3_supporting as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation guidelines (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gim.2021.09.012). The supporting evidence is as follows: BP4 - REVEL score is 0.291. It is below 0.5, so splicing evaluation is required. Functional data on splicing is not available. A) Variant not on limits. B) Variant is exonic and within range, but it does not create a de novo AG or GT site. The variant is not predicted to alter splicing. BP2 - 2 individuals from Ambry Genetics: Patient 1 has LDLR p.Gln33* in trans. Phenotype LDL 111 mg/dl (on treatment); Patient 2 has LDLR p.Gly373Asp in trans. Phenotype = "high chol". PS3_supporting - level 3 assay (PMID: 9409298) - Heterozygous patients' lymphoblasts, immunoblotting, I125-LDL assay: no precursor detectable, degradation of 125I-LDL = 73%. Variant has 2 Supporting evidence codes towards Benign, enough to classify as Likely benign, and only 1 Supporting evidence code towards Pathogenic. The Benign criteria overwhelms the Pathogenic criteria, so we are confident in classifying this variant as Likely benign.

The variant is located outside of any known functional domain or repeat. 4/4 in silico tools predict benign outcome for this variant (SNP&GO was not used due to a low reliability index), however no experimental studies were published at the time of evaluation (ACMG BP4). The variant of interest has been identified in a large, broad control datasets of ExAC at a frequency of 0.0008 (99/121250 chrs tested), reaching the 0.0011 in several sub-populations (South Asians and European NF) including 1 homozygote. Although the observed frequency is similar to the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic LDLR variant (~0.001), thus supporting benign interpretation, the information on lipid profiling in these individuals is not available for individual review. The variant of interest was reported in multiple patients with elevated cholesterol level, including patient(s) carrying a known pathogenic variant APOB p.R3500Q (ACMG BP5), in whom lipid profiling results were not significantly different from data observed in patients carrying APOB R3500Q alone (Brusgaard, 2006) (ACMG BP5). In addition, per Dutch FH-database, cholesterol levels of R723Q positive and R723Q negative relatives are virtually similar (ACMG BS4), again favoring benign classification. The c.2231G>A was identified heterozygously in a healthy Caucasian adult undergoing carrier screening (ACMG BS2). Lastly, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as Benign/Likely Benign (ACMG BP6). Considering all evidence the variant was conservatively classified as Likely Benign until additional evidence supporting its presence in normolipedimic control subjects is obtained.ACMG Classification: BRationale for Pathogenicity: none. Rationale for being Benign: BS2, BS4, BP4, BP5; BP6 was not engaged due to discordant classifications.

GeneDx RCV000058922 SCV000977871 likely benign not provided 2018-06-18 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease.

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina RCV000172965 SCV001286053 likely benign Hypercholesterolemia, familial, 1 2017-04-27 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. The evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was sufficient to determine this variant is unlikely to cause disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely benign.
