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.

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: ABCA4 c.1411G>A (p.Glu471Lys) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00083 in 251400 control chromosomes in GnomAD. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in ABCA4 causing Retinitis Pigmentosa (0.00083 vs 0.0014), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1411G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Retinitis Pigmentosa or Stargardt disease, but the second pathogenic variant and the phase information are not always known (example: Allikmets_1997, Lewis_1999, Hanany_2020, Reinhard_2007, Sharon_2019). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. Co-occurrences with other pathogenic variants have been reported (phase unknown with p.Gly863Ala and p.Asp1532Asn of ABCA4; in cis with c.4919G>A/p.Arg1640Gln of ABCA4), providing supporting evidence for a benign role (Fujinami_2013 and Mena_2021). At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. These results showed no damaging effect of this variant (Sun_2000). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 9295268, 23953153, 31964843, 33841504, 17562343, 10958763, 31456290, 11017087, 11328725). Ten 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 (VUS: 8, Likely pathognic: 1, Benign: 1) . Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
