Description

This missense variant (also known as p.Asp147Asn in the mature protein) replaces aspartic acid with asparagine at codon 168 in the fourth LDLR type A repeat of the ligand binding domain of the LDLR protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Functional studies have shown that this variant causes a significant decrease in LDL binding and uptake, although effect is not as severe as null alleles (PMID: 25545329, 25647241). This variant has been reported in over ten individuals and families affected with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 15556094, 16205024, 16389549, 17955342, 22859806, 23669246, 27784735, 28379029, 33807407, 34037665; Color internal data), including a homozygous individual with severe phenotype (PMID: 27784735). This variant has been identified in 2/251288 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Different missense variants occurring at the same amino acid position (p.Asp168His, p.Asp168Gly, p.Asp168Tyr) are known to be disease-causing (ClinVar variation ID: 251258, 251260, 251259), indicating that aspartic acid at this position is important for LDLR function. Based on available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.
