Description

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 350 of the LDLR protein (p.Arg350Pro). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 9026534, 19837725; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 226343). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt LDLR protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects LDLR function (PMID: 15100232). This variant disrupts the p.Arg350 amino acid residue in LDLR. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with LDLR-related conditions (PMID: 31106925), 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 (also known as p.Arg329Pro in the mature protein) replaces arginine with proline at codon 350 in the EGF-like repeat A of the EGF precursor homology domain of the LDLR protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Experimental functional studies have shown that this variant causes LDLR protein misfolding and significant reduction in protein activity (PMID: 9026534, 15100232). This variant has been reported in one individual affected with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 31106925). This variant has also been reported in compound heterozygosity with a pathogenic variant p.Cys248Tyr in an individual affected with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 9026534). The proband's affected sister was also compound heterozygous. The proband's affected father was heterozygous for this variant, and the proband's affected mother was heterozygous for p.Cys248Tyr (PMID: 9026534). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In summary, this rare variant has been shown to disrupt LDLR function and demonstrated to segregate with disease in a family study. Based on available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic.
