Description

This missense variant replaces proline with arginine at codon 181 of the LDLR protein. This variant is also known as p.Pro160Arg in the mature protein. This variant alters a conserved proline residue in the LDLR type A repeat 4 ligand binding domain of the LDLR protein (a.a. 146-186), where pathogenic missense variants are found enriched (ClinVar-LDLR). 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 the variant interfered with LDLR precursor processing to the mature form, although the mature mutant protein exhibited wild-type like LDLR activity (PMID: 21868016, 25647241). This variant has been reported in at least ten individuals affected with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 11668640, 11754108, 20045108, 21310417, 21868016, 22698793, 23375686, 32977124; ClinVar SCV000503179.1, SCV000583701.1, SCV000540742.1). It has also been reported in three individuals affected with early-onset myocardial infarction (PMID: 25647241). This variant has been identified in 6/251308 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic.

Description

This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 181 of the LDLR protein (p.Pro181Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs557344672, gnomAD 0.005%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 11754108, 16250003, 20045108, 21868016, 22698793; Invitae). This variant is also known as P160R. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 183089). 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 does not substantially affect LDLR function (PMID: 21868016, 25647241). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
