Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000781509 SCV000919591 uncertain significance not specified 2018-12-11 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: LDLR c.451G>C (p.Ala151Pro) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor class A repeat of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 245930 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. The variant, c.451G>C, has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Familial Hypercholesterolemia (Zakharova_2005). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Familial Hypercholesterolemia. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation and classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV002518476 SCV003259877 uncertain significance Familial hypercholesterolemia 2022-02-22 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 151 of the LDLR protein (p.Ala151Pro). This variant is present in population databases (rs763233960, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 11642133, 16792510; Invitae). This variant is also known as p.Ala130Pro. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 251234). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). In 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.
Ambry Genetics RCV003298312 SCV004000133 uncertain significance Cardiovascular phenotype 2023-05-31 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.A151P variant (also known as c.451G>C), located in coding exon 4 of the LDLR gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 451. The alanine at codon 151 is replaced by proline, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been reported in subjects with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH), though limited clinical information was available (Leigh SE et al. Ann Hum Genet, 2008 Jul;72:485-98; Lombardi MP et al. Genet Test, 2006;10:77-84; Zakharova FM et al. BMC Med Genet, 2005 Feb;6:6; Meshkov A et al. Genes (Basel), 2021 Jan;12:). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health RCV000238165 SCV005426447 uncertain significance Hypercholesterolemia, familial, 1 2024-04-16 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This missense variant replaces alanine with proline at codon 151 of the LDLR protein. This variant is also known as p.Ala130Pro in the mature protein. Computational prediction tools indicate that this variant's impact on protein structure and function is inconclusive. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in at least three individuals affected with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 11642133, 16792510; ClinVar SCV003259877.1). This variant has been identified in 3/251146 chromosomes 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.
