Findings

This variant was identified in a French patient in a cohort of nearly 6,000 unrelated individuals with primary dyslipidemia (Abou Khalil et al., 2022). The carrier had elevated triglycerides in blood and was diagnosed with familial combined hyperlipidemia, also known as hyperlipoproteinemia type IIb, and cardiovascular disease. Their APOE genotype was APOE3/E3.

The variant was absent from the gnomAD variant database (gnomAD v3.1.1, Nov 2021).

Biological Effect

The biological effect of this variant is unknown. Predictions from multiple computational algorithms yielded mixed results (Abou Khalil et al., 2022). Its PHRED-scaled CADD score (23.5), which integrates diverse information in silico, was above 20, a commonly used threshold to predict deleteriousness (CADD v1.6).
