Description
The p.Arg406Trp variant in LDLR has been reported in at least 51 individuals (including 48 Portuguese, 1 Taiwanese, 1 Korean, and 1 Ashkenazi Jewish individuals) with Familial Hypercholesterolemia, segregated with disease in 48 affected relatives from 18 families (PMID: 17765246, 20538126, 26343872, 8882879, 25741862), and has been identified in 0.009658% (1/10354) of Ashkenazi Jewish chromosomes and 0.008021% (2/24936) of African chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs121908043). Please note that for diseases with clinical variability, or reduced penetrance, pathogenic variants may be present at a low frequency in the general population. This variant has also been reported likely pathogenic and pathogenic in ClinVar (Variation ID: 226351). In vitro functional studies provide some evidence that the p.Arg406Trp variant may impact cell surface expression and receptor activity (PMID: 25741862). However, these types of assays may not accurately represent biological function. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for Familial Hypercholesterolemia in an autosomal dominant manner based on cosegregation with disease and multiple reports in individuals with Familial Hypercholesterolemia. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PP1_Strong, PS4, PS3_supporting, PP3 (Richards 2015).

Description
The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c1216C>T (p.Arg406Trp) variant is classified as Pathogenic for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying evidence codes PM2, PP3, PS3, PS4, PP1_Strong, and PP4 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: PM2 - PopMax MAF = 0.000097 (0.0097%) in Ashkenazi Jewish exomes+genomes (gnomAD v2.1.1). PP3 - REVEL = 0.88, which is above the threshold of 0.75. PS3 – Level 1 functional studies: PMID: 2574186; Heterologous cells (CHO), FACS assays - variant results in 60-65% LDLR expression/biosynthesis, LDL binding and LDL internalization compared to wild-type; results meet <70% threshold. PS4 – Variant meets PM2 and is identified in at least 19 unrelated index cases who fulfill clinical criteria for FH (1 case with DLCN criteria from PathWest Laboratory Medicine WA – FH VCEP member lab; 18 cases with SB criteria from Cardiovascular Research Group, Instituto Nacional de Saude Doutor Ricardo Jorge – FH VCEP member lab). PP1_Strong – Variant segregates with phenotype in 31 informative meioses from 15 families in data provided by FH VCEP member labs (Cardiovascular Research Group, Instituto Nacional de Saude Doutor Ricardo Jorge – 11 families: 23 affected with the variant and 1 unaffected without the variant; Laboratory of Genetics and Molecular Cardiology – 4 families: 4 affected with the variant and 3 unaffected without the variant). PP4 - Variant meets PM2. Identified in >1 case who met clinical criteria for FH after alternative causes for high cholesterol were excluded. Note: two other missense variants at this same codon have been reported: 1) NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.1217G>A (p.Arg406Gln) – Likely pathogenic by these guidelines. 2) NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.1217G>C (p.Arg406Pro) – Likely pathogenic by these guidelines. -PM5 not applicable as such variants must be Pathogenic.

Description
This missense variant replaces arginine with tryptophan at codon 406 of the LDLR protein. It is also known as p.Arg385Trp in the mature protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have a deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Functional studies have shown that this variant causes partial reduction of LDLR activity by about 40% compared to wild-type (PMID: 25741862). This LDLR variant has been reported in individuals affected with autosomal dominant familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 8882879, 17694954, 17765246, 20538126, 25461735, 26020417, 26343872, 28502495, 30876530, 32331935, 33533259, 33994402). This variant has also been observed in both homozygous and compound heterozygous state with a known pathogenic LDLR variant in individuals affected with severe homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia, a phenotype expected of having two deleterious LDLR variants (PMID: 20538126, 26020417). This variant has been identified in 5/282390 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Different missense variants occurring at the same codon, p.Arg406Gln and p.Arg406Pro, are known to cause disease (ClinVar Variation ID: 228798, 226352), indicating that arginine at this position may be important for LDLR protein function. Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.
