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.

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterresearchOcular Genomics Institute, Massachusetts Eye and EarApr 08, 2021The ABCA4 c.4577C>T variant was identified in an individual with retinitis pigmentosa with a presumed recessive inheritance pattern. Through a review of available evidence we were able to apply the following criteria: PS3, PM2, PP3, PP5. Based on this evidence we have classified this variant as Likely Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingMolecular Genetics, Royal Melbourne HospitalMar 30, 2023This sequence change is predicted to replace threonine with methionine at codon 1526 of the ABCA4 protein, p.(Thr1526Met). The threonine residue is moderately conserved (100 vertebrates, UCSC), and in the extracellular domain. There is a moderate physicochemical difference between threonine and methionine. The variant is present in a large population cohort at a frequency of 0.006%, which is consistent with recessive disease (rs61750152, 18/282,882 alleles, 0 homozygotes in gnomAD v2.1.1). Multiple Stargardt disease/ABCA4 retinopathy cases are compound heterozygous with a second pathogenic variant or homozygous (PMID: 9973280, 19074458, 28446513), and at least two affected segregations in a single family have been reported for the variant (PMID: 19074458). Multiple lines of computational evidence predict a deleterious effect for the missense substitution (7/7 algorithms). Based on the classification scheme RMH ACMG Guidelines v1.1.1, this variant is classified as PATHOGENIC. Following criteria are met: PM3_VeryStrong, PM2, PP1, PP3. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 29, 2024This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1526 of the ABCA4 protein (p.Thr1526Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs61750152, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with Stargardt disease or cone-rod dystrophy and Stargardt disease in at least one family and has been observed in unrelated individuals affected with Stargardt disease or cone-rod dystrophy (PMID: 9973280, 19074458). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 99303). 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: 11017087). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
