Familial Hypercholesterolemia VCEP
NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.681C>G (p.Asp227Glu) variant, also known as ‘FH Afrikaner-1’ or ‘FH Maine’, is classified as Pathogenic for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying ACMG/AMP evidence codes PS4, PP1_Strong, PS3_Moderate, PM1, PM2, PP3 and PP4 as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation guidelines (specification version 1.2) on 29 April 2022. The supporting evidence is as follows: PM2: PopMax MAF = 0.00002899 (0.003%) in Latino/Admixed American exomes (gnomAD v2.1.1). PP3: REVEL = 0.864. PM1: Variant meets PM2 and is missense located in exon 4. PS3_Moderate: Level 2 assay PMID 1301956 (Hobbs et al., 1992): Homozygous patient's fibroblasts studied with radiolabeled LDL results in 5-15% LDLR activity. Functional study is consistent with damaging effect. Level 2 assay PMID 2569482 (Leitersdorf et al., 1989): Partial cycle of LDLR studied in CHO Cells. WB after immunoprecipitation of radiolabelled LDLR variant show <50% of WT LDLR expression. PS4, PP4: Variant meets PM2 and is identified in 33 index cases who fulfil SB criteria for FH (n=1 CGMC, UFGOD, APHP.Sorbonne Université, Hôpital de la Pitié-Salpêtrière) or DLCN criteria for FH (n=2 Robarts Research Institute; n=2 Color Health, Inc.; n=3 CGMC, UFGOD, APHP.Sorbonne Université, Hôpital de la Pitié-Salpêtrière; n=25 Cardiovascular Genetics Laboratory, PathWest Laboratory Medicine WA). PP1_Strong: Variant segregates with FH in at least 22 informatives meioses from at least 2 families from different labs (Centre de Génétique Moléculaire et Chromosomique, Unité de génétique de l'Obésité et des Dyslipidémies, APHP.Sorbonne Université, Hôpital de la Pitié-Salpêtrière, France; Cardiovascular Genetics Laboratory, PathWest Laboratory Medicine WA, Australia): 20 affected family members have the variant and 2 unaffected family members do not have the variant.
