Description
This variant disrupts the p.Pro84 amino acid residue in LDLR. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with LDLR-related conditions (PMID: 22883975, 33740630), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. 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. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 251095). This variant is also known as P63R. This missense change has been observed in individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 16159606, 33740630; Invitae). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 84 of the LDLR protein (p.Pro84Arg).
