Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 21 ACMG points: 21P and 0B. PS3PM1PM5PP2PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000350.3(ABCA4):c.3259G>A(p.Glu1087Lys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000242 in 1,614,036 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV001804262: Published functional studies suggest a damaging effect with reduced protein expression and decreased ATPase activity (Sun et al., 2000)" and additional evidence is available in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. E1087D) has been classified as Likely pathogenic. The gene ABCA4 is included in the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry.

Genes affected

ABCA4 (HGNC:34): (ATP binding cassette subfamily A member 4) The membrane-associated protein encoded by this gene is a member of the superfamily of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters. ABC proteins transport various molecules across extra- and intracellular membranes. ABC genes are divided into seven distinct subfamilies (ABC1, MDR/TAP, MRP, ALD, OABP, GCN20, White). This protein is a member of the ABC1 subfamily. Members of the ABC1 subfamily comprise the only major ABC subfamily found exclusively in multicellular eukaryotes. This protein is a retina-specific ABC transporter with N-retinylidene-PE as a substrate. It is expressed exclusively in retina photoreceptor cells, and the gene product mediates transport of an essental molecule, all-trans-retinal aldehyde (atRAL), across the photoreceptor cell membrane. Mutations in this gene are found in patients diagnosed with Stargardt disease, a form of juvenile-onset macular degeneration. Mutations in this gene are also associated with retinitis pigmentosa-19, cone-rod dystrophy type 3, early-onset severe retinal dystrophy, fundus flavimaculatus, and macular degeneration age-related 2.

ACMG classification

Specifications for ABCA4 are available in the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry and recommended for reference when assigning criteria.

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 21 ACMG points.

PS3

PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV001804262: Published functional studies suggest a damaging effect with reduced protein expression and decreased ATPase activity (Sun et al., 2000); SCV005363178: Site-directed mutagenesis revealed that this variant exhibited diminished protein expression compared to the wildtype ABCA4 protein (Curtis et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32845050).

PM1

In a hotspot region, there are 14 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 7 uncertain in NM_000350.3

PM5

Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr1-94042828-T-G is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 99212.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

PP2

Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 578 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 28 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: -0.65813 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 1.3628 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to severe early-childhood-onset retinal dystrophy, retinitis pigmentosa, age related macular degeneration 2, retinitis pigmentosa 19, cone-rod dystrophy 3, ABCA4-related retinopathy, Stargardt disease, cone-rod dystrophy.

PP3

MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.994

PP5

Variant 1-94042830-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-94042830-C-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 99211.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
