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.

ABCA4-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaOct 25, 2018The ABCA4c.872C>T (p.Pro291Leu) missense variant has been reported in four studies, in which it is found in a total of five individuals with Stargardt disease, including in three in a compound heterozygous state and in two in a heterozygous state (Ernest et al. 2009; Roberts et al. 2012; Teussink et al. 2015; Nassisi et al. 2018). The variant has not been reported in the literature in association with autosomal recessive cone rod dystrophy, autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa, or autosomal dominant macular degeneration. The p.Pro291Leu variant was absent from 100 controls and is reported at a frequency of 0.004409 in the Latino population of the Exome Aggregation Consortium. Based on the limited evidence the p.Pro291Leu is classified as a variant of unknown significance but suspicious for pathogenicity for ABCA4-related disorders. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -
