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.

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1486 of the ABCA4 protein (p.Pro1486Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs61750145, gnomAD 0.07%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Stargardt disease (PMID: 18285826, 22247458, 23755871, 28559085, 30093795). 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: 99283). 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 ABCA4 c.4457C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Pro1486Leu. This variant has been reported many times in the homozygous and compound heterozygous state in individuals with ABCA4-related retinal disease (see for examples: Table S1, Stone et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28559085; Del Pozo-Valero et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 31129250; Table S4, Rodríguez-Muñoz et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32036094; Table S1, Lin et al. 2024. PubMed ID: 38219857). This variant is reported in 0.062% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
