Familial Hypercholesterolemia

rs137853964 represents two variants in the low density lipoprotein receptor LDLR gene; the first, known as c.2479G>T, p.Val827Phe or V827F, is considered by most submitters to ClinVar as likely to pathogenic for familial hypercholesterolemia. The second variant, known as c.2479G>A, p.Val827Ile or V827I, is more common and of uncertain status; on one check, 4 ClinVar sources said it was benign, 5 said it was of uncertain status, and 2 said it was likely to be pathogenic, so clearly, it is not clear.
This variant in the LDLR gene is reported as meeting at least one of three criteria considered pathogenic for familial hypercholesterolemia and therefore significantly higher risk of coronary artery disease in a sequencing based study of 26,000 participants.[PMID 27050191

This SNP is being studied in participants in the NIH ClinSeq program.[PMID 19602640]
