Description

The p.Cys313Tyr variant in LDLR (also described as p.Cys292Tyr in the literature) has been reported in >10 individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH), of which 2 are in the compound heterozygous state (Day 1997, Thiart 2000, Fouchier 2001, Bunn 2002, Van der Graaf 2011, Martin 2016). It has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 226339) and was absent from large population studies. Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that the p.Cys131Tyr variant may impact the protein. This variant is located in the last three bases of the exon, which is part of the 5’ splice region. Computational tools do not suggest an impact to splicing. Additionally, other missense variants at this amino acid position (p.Cys313Arg, p.Cys313Gly and p.Cys313Trp) have been reported in individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia (Human Gene Mutation Database: Stenson 2017), suggesting that changes at this position may not be tolerated. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, the p.Cys313Tyr variant is likely pathogenic. The ACMG/AMP Criteria applied (Richards 2015): PS4_Moderate, PM2, PP3, PM5_Supporting.
