RCV001066736 | SCV001231753 | pathogenic | Familial hypercholesterolemia | 2024-12-09 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 227 of the LDLR protein (p.Asp227Val). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia in a family and has been indentified in individuals affected with this condition (PMID: 20809525; internal data). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. Invitae Evidence Modeling of clinical and family history, age, sex, and reported ancestry of multiple individuals with this LDLR variant has been performed. This variant is expected to be pathogenic with a positive predictive value of at least 99%. This is a validated machine learning model that incorporates the clinical features of 363,995 individuals referred to our laboratory for LDLR testing. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 251388). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt LDLR protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Asp227 amino acid residue in LDLR. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 17539906, 19467224, 21310417, 21382890, 22883975, 23375686, 23669246, 27680772). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. |
