RCV001178884 | SCV001343446 | pathogenic | Familial hypercholesterolemia | 2018-10-01 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant inserts 5 nucleotides in exon 4 of the LDLR gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. To our knowledge, functional assays have not been performed for this variant nor has this variant been reported in individuals affected with familial hypercholesterolemia in the literature. This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of LDLR function is a known mechanism of disease. Based on available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. |
