Description

This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 109 of the LDLR protein (p.Cys109Arg). Information on the frequency of this variant in the gnomAD database is not available, as this variant may be reported differently in the database. This missense change has been observed in individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 11313767, 14974088, 19843101, 20145306, 22698793). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 251154). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. 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.Cys109 amino acid residue in LDLR. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with LDLR-related conditions (PMID: 1131376, 9544745, 12009418), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Description

This missense variant deletes 2 nucleotides and inserts 2 nucleotides, resulting in the replacement of cysteine with arginine at codon 109 in the LDLR type A repeat 3 of the LDLR protein. This variant is also known as p.Cys88Arg in the mature protein. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in over 10 individuals affected with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 11313767, 20145306, 34037665, 35741760; ClinVar SCV000503139.1 and SCV000987024.1). A different missense variant occurring at the same codon and causing the same amino acid change, c.325T>C (p.Cys109Arg), is known to be disease-causing (ClinVar variation ID: 251156). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.
