Description

Also identified in patients with hypercholesterolemia in published literature (de Paiva Silvino et al., 2020; Gill et al., 2021; Meshkov et al., 2021); at least one patient also harbored a pathogenic variant in the LDLR gene (Wang et al., 2016); Published functional studies demonstrate loss-of-function with a modest effect, resulting in a 16% increased level of cell surface LDL-receptors and a 35% increase in the internalization of LDL when compared to wild-type PCSK9 (Cameron et al., 2006); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 18300938, 25046268, 16424354, 16465619, 17765244, 21943799, 28157721, 17435765, 16912035, 15358785, 24507775, 27535533, 16571601, 26582918, 27765764, 33418990, 33231818, 33303402)
