RCV001179816 | SCV001344599 | uncertain significance | Familial hypercholesterolemia | 2023-12-05 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Variant of Uncertain Significance due to insufficient evidence: This missense variant replaces arginine with cysteine at codon 29 of the PCSK9 protein. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may not impact the protein function. Computational splicing tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. 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 is rare in the general population and has been identified in 0/277264 chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. |
