Description
Disrupts a negatively charged triplet, Ser-Asp-Glu, located at the carboxyl-terminal end of the LDL- receptor class A5 repeat domain that is critical for ligand binding (Schneider et al., 2003); Functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect: creation of two LDLR isoforms, both with a slower maturation process, and one with inability to bind to the lipoprotein ligand resulting in a reduced rate of lipoprotein degradation (Leitersdorf et al., 1989; Fourie et al., 1992); Common founder variant in the Afrikaner population (Kotze et al., 1993); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 3202825, 2352257, 23375686, 2569482, 11810272, 26892515, 8093663, 9664576, 17087781, 2565980, 1463746, 30270076, 31048103, 29284604, 31447099, 32977124, 32041611, 32922439, 33740630, 34037665, 33087929, 28965616, 30592178, 27680772, 12827279, 3430554, 8399083)
