RCV001806819 | SCV002051344 | uncertain significance | not specified | 2021-12-23 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Variant summary: LRP5 c.4049T>G (p.Leu1350Arg) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor class A repeat (IPR002172) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00018 in 251356 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0014 within the South Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within South Asian control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 22-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in LRP5 causing Familial Exudative Vitreoretinopathy phenotype (6.3e-05), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of South Asian origin. Nevertheless, c.4049T>G has been reported in the literature in cis with another variant segregating with disease in one family affected with Familial Exudative Vitreoretinopathy (Salvo_2015). However, potential causation by a single variant could not be determined. This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Familial Exudative Vitreoretinopathy. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance until additional evidence of clinical and/or functional importance become available. |
