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.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 5 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 2 benign, 6 uncertain in NM_000350.3
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr1-94063157-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 7900.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_pathogenic=4, Uncertain_significance=4, not_provided=1}.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.985
• PP5: Variant 1-94063157-C-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-94063157-C-G is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 99073.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr1-94063157-C-G is described in Lovd as [Likely_benign].

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 572 of the ABCA4 protein (p.Arg572Pro). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Stargardt disease (PMID: 8533764, 9973280, 32037395, 32619608). 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: 99073). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae 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. -

Variant summary: ABCA4 c.1715G>C (p.Arg572Pro) 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 was absent in 251442 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1715G>C has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ABCA4-related conditions (example: Lewis_1999, Pozo_Valero_2020, Zampaglione_2020). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 9973280, 32619608, 32037395, 8533764). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 99073). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
