Description

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 406 of the LDLR protein (p.Arg406Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs552422789, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with LDLR-related conditions (PMID: 10882754, 17094996, 28008010). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 228798). 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 with a positive predictive value of 95%. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. This variant disrupts the p.Arg406 amino acid residue in LDLR. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 8882879, 25461735, 26343872). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Description

This missense variant replaces arginine with glutamine at codon 406 in LDLR type B repeat 1 in EGF precursor homology domain of the LDLR protein. This variant is also known as p.Arg385Gln in the mature protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have a deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may create a new acceptor site. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in nine unrelated individuals affected with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 10882754, 17094996, 23680767, 28008010, 29353225, 33418990, 34037665, 36499307, ClinVar SCV000503318.1). Different missense variants affecting the same codon, p.Arg406Trp and p.Arg406Pro, are considered to be disease-causing (ClinVar variation ID: 226351 and 226352), suggesting that arginine at this position is important for LDLR protein function. This variant has been identified in 4/251042 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic.
