Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points: 8P and 0B. PVS1

The NM_000350.3(ABCA4):​c.3289A>T​(p.Arg1097Ter) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000616 in 1,461,890 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. R1097R) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

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 submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Aug 24, 2022	ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 242388). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg1097*) in the ABCA4 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in ABCA4 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10958761, 24938718, 25312043, 26780318). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with ABCA4-related conditions (PMID: 23982839, 28118664, 28559085). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). -
