Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine RCV000237148 SCV004847825 pathogenic Hypercholesterolemia, familial, 1 2021-05-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.Ser286Arg variant in LDLR has been reported in more than 25 individuals with hypercholesterolemia and segregated with disease in at least 27 affected individuals from multiple families (Hobbs 1992 PMID: 1301956, Bertolini 2013 PMID: 23375686, Mollaki 2014 PMID: 27578104). Notably, the variant appears to be associated with a milder hypercholesterolemia phenotype (Huijgen 2012 PMID: 22390909). This variant has also been reported in by other clinical laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID 251488) and has been identified in 0.006% (7/113726) of European chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This frequency is low enough to be consistent with the frequency of familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) in the general population. In vitro functional studies support an impact on protein function (Hobbs 1992 PMID: 1301956) and computational prediction tools and conservation analyses are consistent with pathogenicity. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant FH. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PS4, PP1_Strong, PM2_supporting, PS3_Supporting, PP3.
All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health RCV000237148 SCV004820223 likely pathogenic Hypercholesterolemia, familial, 1 2023-12-14 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This missense variant (also known as p.Ser265Arg in the mature protein and as FH Greece-2) replaces serine with arginine at codon 286 in the LDLR type A repeat 7 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). An experimental functional study has shown that this variant in compound heterozygosity with p.Cys173Arg reduces LDLR activity to 5-15% compared to wild type (PMID: 1301956). This variant has been reported in numerous individuals affected with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 11462246, 11810272, 15015036, 17347910, 23130880, 27578104, 27765764, 28965616, 32829317, 33454241, 33794673; Color Health internal data) and is a recurrent mutation in the Greek population (PMID: 27578104). This variant has been identified in 7/251430 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.

Ambry Genetics RCV002446473 SCV002681307 pathogenic Cardiovascular phenotype 2026-03-05 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.858C>A (p.S286R) alteration is located in exon 6 (coding exon 6) of the LDLR gene. This alteration results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 858, causing the serine (S) at amino acid position 286 to be replaced by an arginine (R). Based on data from gnomAD, the A allele has an overall frequency of 0.003% (7/251430) total alleles studied. The highest observed frequency was 0.006% (7/113726) of European (non-Finnish) alleles. This variant, also referred to as S265R and FH Greece-2, has been detected in several cohorts and multiple unrelated individuals with hypercholesterolemia from various ethnic backgrounds, and has been reported to result in reduced LDL receptor activity (Hobbs, 1992; Day, 1997; Traeger-Synodinos, 1998; Nauck, 2001; Mihaylov, 2004; Whittall, 2010; Huijgen, 2012; Mollaki, 2014; Klanar, 2015). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. This alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic.

This variant is present in population databases (rs140241383, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 1301956, 11317361, 11462246, 15015036, 23130880, 27765764). Invitae Evidence Modeling of clinical and family history, age, sex, and reported ancestry of multiple individuals with this LDLR variant has been performed. This variant is expected to be pathogenic with a positive predictive value of at least 99%. This is a validated machine learning model that incorporates the clinical features of 377,766 individuals referred to our laboratory for LDLR testing. This variant is also known as p.Ser265Arg. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 251488). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt LDLR protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000590088 SCV000697254 pathogenic Familial hypercholesterolemia 2017-04-06 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: The LDLR c.858C>A (p.Ser286Arg) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. 4/4 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant (SNPs&GO not captured due to low reliability index), which was confirmed by low LDLR activity in patient carrying this variant (Hobbs_1992). This variant was found in 3/121368 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000247, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic LDLR variant (0.0012508). This variant has been reported in a large number of FH patients with milder phenotype. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as likely pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic.
