Description
The c.2397_2405delCGTCTTCCT variant (also known as p.V800_L802del) is located in coding exon 17 of the LDLR gene. This variant results from an in-frame CGTCTTCCT deletion at nucleotide positions 2397 to 2405. This results in the in-frame deletion of a at codon 800. This alteration has been reported in familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) cohorts and is often described on the same chromosome, or in cis, with the alteration, p.N564H (Alonso R et al. J Clin Lipidol Apr;10:953-961; Lombardi P et al. Clin Genet, 1996 Dec;50:525-6; Jensen HK et al. Atherosclerosis, 1999 Oct;146:337-44; Ebhardt M et al. Hum Mutat, 1999;13:257; Fouchier SW et al. Hum Genet, 2001 Dec;109:602-15; Mozas P et al. Hum Mutat, 2004 Aug;24:187; Martín-Campos JM et al. J Clin Lipidol Sep;12:1452-1462). This alteration was also detected in a cohort of 29,906 healthy individuals who underwent multigene panel testing (Grzymski JJ et al. Nat Med, 2020 08;26:1235-1239). This amino acid position ranges from not well to poorly conserved in available vertebrate species. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
