Description

The c.314-2A>C intronic pathogenic mutation results from an A to C substitution two nucleotides upstream from coding exon 4 in the LDLR gene. Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to result in aberrant splicing. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice acceptor site and may result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice acceptor site. The resulting transcript is predicted to be in-frame and is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNAdecay; however, direct evidence is unavailable. The exact functional effect of the altered amino acid sequence is unknown; however, the impacted region is critical for protein function (Ambry internal data). This alteration has been described in familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) cohorts (Wang J et al. Hum Mutat. 2001;18:359; Wang J et al. Arterioscler Thromb Vasc Biol, 2016 12;36:2439-2445; Sturm AC et al. JAMA Cardiol, 2021 08;6:902-909). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Another alteration impacting the same acceptor site (c.314-1G>A) has also been detected in individuals with FH (Huijgen et al 2010; Hum Mut 31(6):752-60; Lombardi P et al. Hum Mutat, 1998;Suppl 1:S172-4; Luirink IK et al. Atherosclerosis, 2019 06;285:87-92). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
