Description

This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 368 of the LDLR protein (p.Cys368Tyr). This variant is present in population databases (rs768430352, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 1310940, 21722902, 23064986, 25461735, 26081744). This variant is also known as p.Cys347Tyr. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 251665). 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%. This variant affects a cysteine residue located within an LDLRA or epidermal-growth-factor (EGF)-like domains of the LDLR protein. Cysteine residues in these domains have been shown to be involved in the formation of disulfide bridges, which are critical for protein structure and stability (PMID: 7548065, 7603991, 7979249). In addition, missense substitutions within the LDLRA and EGF-like domains affecting cysteine residues are overrepresented among patients with hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 18325082). This variant disrupts the p.Cys368 amino acid residue in LDLR. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 9452094, 27765764). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Description

Variant summary: LDLR c.1103G>A (p.Cys368Tyr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the EGF-like domain (IPR000742) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 251548 control chromosomes. c.1103G>A has been reported in the literature in many individuals affected with Familial Hypercholesterolemia (example Loux_1992, Mozas_2004, Robles-Osorio_2006, Ahmad_2012, Jannes_2015, Wintjens_2016, Martin-Campos_2018). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The Cys368Tyr variant was found to have reduced LDL-LDLR binding activity and LDL uptake, 40% and 60% than that of wild type, repectively (Galicia-Garcia_2020). Six clinical diagnostic laboratories and four research groups have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. Multiple laboratories reported the variant with conflicting assessments (4 pathogenic, 3 likely pathogenic, and 3 VUS). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
