Description

Variant summary: The LDLR c.2231G>A (p.Arg744Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant is located outside of any known functional domain or repeat. 4/4 in silico tools predict benign outcome for this variant (SNP&GO was not used due to a low reliability index), however no experimental studies were published at the time of evaluation (ACMG BP4). The variant of interest has been identified in a large, broad control datasets of ExAC at a frequency of 0.0008 (99/121250 chrs tested), reaching the 0.0011 in several sub-populations (South Asians and European NF) including 1 homozygote. Although the observed frequency is similar to the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic LDLR variant (~0.001), thus supporting benign interpretation, the information on lipid profiling in these individuals is not available for individual review. The variant of interest was reported in multiple patients with elevated cholesterol level, including patient(s) carrying a known pathogenic variant APOB p.R3500Q (ACMG BP5), in whom lipid profiling results were not significantly different from data observed in patients carrying APOB R3500Q alone (Brusgaard, 2006) (ACMG BP5). In addition, per Dutch FH-database, cholesterol levels of R723Q positive and R723Q negative relatives are virtually similar (ACMG BS4), again favoring benign classification. The c.2231G>A was identified heterozygously in a healthy Caucasian adult undergoing carrier screening (ACMG BS2). Lastly, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as Benign/Likely Benign (ACMG BP6). Considering all evidence the variant was conservatively classified as Likely Benign until additional evidence supporting its presence in normolipedimic control subjects is obtained.ACMG Classification: BRationale for Pathogenicity: none. Rationale for being Benign: BS2, BS4, BP4, BP5; BP6 was not engaged due to discordant classifications.

Description

This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease.
