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.

Significance:Pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 418 of the ABCA4 protein (p.Phe418Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs794726979, gnomAD 0.002%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with ABCA4-related conditions (PMID: 21911583, 28341476, 28559085, 29555955, 30834176). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 193580). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt ABCA4 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v4.1.0 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.005%). Predicted Consequence/Location: Missense variant In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product [REVEL: 0.93 (>=0.6, sensitivity 0.68 and specificity 0.92); 3Cnet: 0.16 (>=0.6, sensitivity 0.72 and precision 0.9)]. The same nucleotide change resulting in the same amino acid change has been previously reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence (ClinVar ID: VCV000193580 /PMID: 21911583). A different missense change at the same codon (p.Phe418Leu) has been reported to be associated with ABCA4-related disorder (PMID: 30060493). Therefore, this variant is classified as Likely pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline.

Variant summary: ABCA4 c.1253T>C (p.Phe418Ser) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 251470 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1253T>C has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with ABCA4-related conditions (examples : Zernant_2011, Stone_2017). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 21911583, 28559085, 29555955, 37734845, 38219857, 28771251). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 193580). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
