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.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 27, 2024This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 1108 of the ABCA4 protein (p.Arg1108Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs61750120, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Stargardt disease and retinitis pigmentosa (PMID: 10958763, 11379881, 16703556, 26103963, 30337596). 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: 92867). 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%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects ABCA4 function (PMID: 26092729). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

ABCA4-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesJun 19, 2024The ABCA4 c.3322C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg1108Cys. This variant has been reported many times in the compound heterozygous state in individuals with Stargardt disease (see for examples Rozet et al. 1998. PubMed ID: 9781034; Bertelsen et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24713488; Duncker et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25283059; Zhu et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 33732702). This variant is reported in 0.020% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. This variant has been classified as pathogenic by the majority of ClinVar submitters (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/92867/). Given the evidence, we interpret this variant as pathogenic. -
