Description

This missense variant (also known as p.Asp679Asn in the mature protein) replaces aspartic acid with asparagine at codon 700 in the EGF precursor homology domain of the LDLR protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Functional studies have shown that this variant causes a significant decrease in LDLR uptake (PMID: 34869944). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 15199436, 23669246, 28008010; Color internal data). This variant has been identified in 8/282422 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This variant is classified as likely pathogenic by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia VCEP (ClinVar variation ID: 200923). Additionally, a different variant occurring at the same codon, p.Asp700Gly, is considered to be disease-causing (Clinvar variation ID: 252220), indicating that aspartic acid at this position is important for LDLR protein function. Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic.

Description

Variant summary: LDLR c.2098G>A (p.Asp700Asn) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the EGF-like domain (IPR000742) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2e-05 in 251024 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The variant, c.2098G>A, has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with (familial) hypercholesterolemia (e.g. Leren_2004, Laurie_2009, Futema_2013, Defesche_2017, Trinder_2020, Dron_2020), however, it was also found in controls (Do_2015, Narang_2020). These data indicate that the variant maybe associated with disease. A recent publication reported experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, and demonstrated a decreased LDLR activity (~20% of normal) in an in vitro expression system (Larrea-Sebal_2021). Seven other submitters, including a variant curation expert panel (ClinGen), have provided clinical-significance assessments for this variant in ClinVar after 2014, and classified the variant as VUS (n=5), while ClinGen classified it as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic.

Description

This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 700 of the LDLR protein (p.Asp700Asn). This variant is present in population databases (rs375009082, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 15199436, 19118540, 23669246; Invitae). This variant is also known as p.D679N. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 200923). 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 with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects LDLR function (PMID: 34869944). This variant disrupts the p.Asn700 amino acid residue in LDLR. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with LDLR-related conditions (PMID: 22353362, 32015373, 34456049; Invitae), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
