RCV000211611 | SCV001960907 | benign | Hypercholesterolemia, familial, 1 | 2021-06-07 | reviewed by expert panel | curation | The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.58G>A (p.Gly20Arg) variant is classified as Benign for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying evidence codes (BS2, BS3, BS4 and PP1_Moderate) as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation guidelines (https://doi.org/10.1101/2021.03.17.21252755). The supporting evidence is as follows: BS2 - Variant identified in 5 unaffected relatives from Centre of molecular biology and gene therapy and 1 elderly heterozygous from the ABraOM database. BS3 - Level 1 assays: PMID 27175606: Heterologous cells (CHO), CLSM assays - result - normal cell surface LDLR, normal LDL-LDLR binding. ---- although not quantified, assume whole cycle is above 90% of wild-type, so BS3 is Met. BS4 - Variant does not segregate with FH phenotype in 8 informative meiosis from at least 3 families from different labs (Centre of molecular biology and gene therapy, University of British Columbia and Cardiovascular Research Group,Instituto Nacional de Saude Doutor Ricardo Jorge). PP1_moderate - variant segregates with FH phenotype in 5 informative meiosis from Centre of molecular biology and gene therapy. Variant has 3 strong evidence codes towards Benign, enough to classify as Benign, and only 1 moderate evidence code towards Pathogenic. The Benign criteria overwhelms the Pathogenic criteria, so we are confident in classifying this variant as Benign. |

RCV000609054 | SCV000697241 | likely benign | not specified | 2020-08-31 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Variant summary: LDLR c.58G>A (p.Gly20Arg) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00077 in 255636 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0024 within the Ashkenazi Jewish subpopulation in the gnomAD database. This frequency is approximately 2-fold the estimated maximum allele frequency expected for a pathogenic variant in LDLR causing Familial Hypercholesterolemia phenotype (0.0013), suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of Ashkenazi Jewish origin. c.58G>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Familial Hypercholesterolemia, however without evidence for co-segrgation with disease. In a family with Familial Hypercholesterolemia (FH), 1 transmission of the variant allele and 1 transmission of the reference allele to affected individuals was reported (Medeiros_2014). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. Co-occurrences with other pathogenic variants in LDLR have also been reported in FH patients in the literature (examples- Tejedor_2011, Komarova_2013, Klancar_2015), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. Several publications report experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, showing no damaging effects by this variant (examples- Thormaehlen_2015, Pavlouskova_2016). Nine other clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. Multiple laboratories reported the variant with conflicting assessments (benign/likely benign, n=5; uncertain significance, n=4). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. |

RCV000211611 | SCV001288138 | uncertain significance | Hypercholesterolemia, familial, 1 | 2018-08-16 | 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. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. |
