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.

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 1794 of the ABCA4 protein (p.Ala1794Asp). This variant is present in population databases (rs61751406, gnomAD 0.004%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with ABCA4-related retinal diseases (PMID: 29555955, 30093795; internal data). 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: 99371). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt ABCA4 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Ala1794 amino acid residue in ABCA4. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 29847635; internal data). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: no assertion criteria provided

Collection Method: research

We suggest likely pathogenic clinical significance based on the following rationale: - Multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect (ACMG/AMP guidelines: PP3) - Co-segregation with disease in multiple affected family members (ACMG/AMP guidelines: PP1) - Almost absent in population databases (ACMG/AMP guidelines: PM2; absent from 1000genomes, 3/121412 in EXaC) - Literature data also show that this allele is present in Stargardt patients' ABCA4 genotypes. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: ABCA4 c.5381C>A (p.Ala1794Asp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the ABC-2 type transporter, transmembrane domain (IPR013525) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2e-05 in 251442 control chromosomes. c.5381C>A has been reported in the literature in multiple compound heterozygous individuals affected with Retinitis Pigmentosa and other forms of retinopathy (Maugeri_1999, Carss_2017, Birtel_2018, Salles_2018, Lynn_2023). These data indicate that the variant is very 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: 29555955, 28041643, 36672815, 10090887, 30093795). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 99371). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
