Description

The LPL c.998G>A (p.Arg333His) variant has been reported in four studies in which it is found in at least three individuals affected with lipoprotein lipase deficiency, including in one in a compound heterozygous state with a second missense variant known to result in complete loss of LPL function and in two in a heterozygous state (Martín-Campos et al. 2014; Rabacchi et al. 2015; Rodrigues et al. 2016; Retterstøl et al. 2017). The p.Arg333His variant was absent from 250 control individuals and is reported at a frequency of 0.00067 in the African population of the Genome Aggregation Database. Expression of the p.Arg333His variant in COS-1 cells revealed that postheparin lipoprotein lipase activity was 6% of wild type levels (Martín-Campos et al. 2014). Based on the evidence, the p.Arg333His variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance but suspicious for pathogenicity for familial lipoprotein lipase deficiency. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population.

Description

Variant summary: LPL c.998G>A (p.Arg333His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Lipase domain (IPR013818) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.8e-05 in 251294 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in LPL causing Familial Lipoprotein Lipase Deficiency (4.8e-05 vs 0.0034), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.998G>A has been reported in the literature as a compound heterozygous genotype in at-least one individual affected with Lipoprotein Lipase Deficiency (example, Martin-Campos_2014). At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function (Martin-Campos_2014). The most pronounced variant effect results in <10% of normal lipoprotein lipase enzyme activity in vitro. Four clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. Multiple laboratories reported the variant with conflicting assessments (Likely pathogenic, n=2; VUS, n=2). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic.
