Genes affected
ELOVL4 (HGNC:14415): (ELOVL fatty acid elongase 4) This gene encodes a membrane-bound protein which is a member of the ELO family, proteins which participate in the biosynthesis of fatty acids. Consistent with the expression of the encoded protein in photoreceptor cells of the retina, mutations and small deletions in this gene are associated with Stargardt-like macular dystrophy (STGD3) and autosomal dominant Stargardt-like macular dystrophy (ADMD), also referred to as autosomal dominant atrophic macular degeneration.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJul 16, 2022For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts a region of the ELOVL4 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Asn264Leufs*9) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 11138005, 23509295, 24833735). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 30494). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive ichthyosis, spastic quadriplegia, and intellectual disability (PMID: 22100072). This variant is present in population databases (rs387906916, gnomAD 0.0009%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg216*) in the ELOVL4 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 99 amino acid(s) of the ELOVL4 protein. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxNov 01, 2023Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation, as the last 99 amino acids are lost, and other loss-of-function variants have been reported downstream in HGMD; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 26010696, 22100072, 24571530, 26427403, 33556440, 31616255, 37568198, 37592902, 30982505) -
