Description
This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 286 of the LDLR protein (p.Ser286Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs140241383, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 1301956, 11317361, 11462246, 15015036, 23130880, 27765764). This variant is also known as p.Ser265Arg. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 251488). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt LDLR protein function. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
