GeneDx RCV000085410 SCV000577606 pathogenic not provided 2024-12-09 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Functional studies demonstrate that the p.(L541P)/p.(A1038V) complex allele as well as the p.(L541P) and p.(A1038V) variants independently result in reduced ATPase activity; however, the affect of p.(A1038V) is milder compared to that of p.(L541P) alone or the p.(L541P)/p.(A1038V) complex allele (PMID: 11017087, 16103129, 25712131); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 37510321, 37498587, 35120629, 35260635, 31964843, 36460718, 32307445, 36672815, 29701254, 33749171, 34321860, 34906470, 9781034, 28118664, 29847635, 38003421, 37734845, 31429209, 32531858, 19217903, 19074458, 24713488, 24509150, 25712131, 10958761, 11328725, 26593885, 28041643, 16103129, 29555955, 29186038, 29068140, 30204727, 29925512, 30718709, 30653986, 32581362, 31573552, 33851411, 32619608, 32783370, 32037395, 32141364, 30643219, 33369172, 29114839, 28559085, 31456290, 35836572, 35119454, 34315337, 11017087, 11527935, 10958763, 22312191, 23918662)

Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine RCV000787481 SCV000967650 pathogenic Stargardt disease 2018-08-14 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.Leu541Pro variant in ABCA4 has been reported in the compound heterozygous state in >4 individuals with Stargardt disease or related retinal dystrophy and as a part of the Leu541Pro/Ala1038Val complex allele (in cis with p.Ala1038Val) in >25 compound heterozygous or homozygous individuals with Stargardt disease or related retinal dystrophy (Rozet 1998, Rivera 2000, Webster 2001, Briggs 2001, Gerth 2002, Hargitai 2005, Cideciyan 2009, Braun 2013, Fujinami 2013, Bertelse n 2014, Audere 2015, Fakin 2016, Lee 2016, Carss 2017, Porto 2017, Salles 2017) . The p.Leu541Pro variant segregated with disease in 1 compound heterozygous sib ling (Lee 2016), and the Leu541Pro/Ala1038Val complex allele segregated with dis ease in >12 affected relatives (Rivera 2000, Wiszniewski 2005, Braun 2013, Sall es 2017). The p.Leu541Pro variant has been identified in 0.07% (17/25792) of Fin nish chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broad institute.org; dbSNP rs61751392) and has also been reported in ClinVar (Variatio n ID: 99067). A mouse model of the complex allele resulted in a Stargardt-like p henotype in homozygous mice (Zhang 2015). Additional functional studies demonstr ated that the p.Leu541Pro and p.A1038V alleles each impact functional activity a nd that the Leu541Pro/Ala1038Val complex allele is more severe, resembling a com plete loss of activity (Sun 2000, Wiszniewski 2005, Zhang 2015). In summary, the p.Leu541Pro variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for Stargardt disease in an autosomal recessive manner. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM3_VerySt rong; PS3_Supporting; PP3.

ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories RCV001002385 SCV001160303 pathogenic not specified 2019-03-04 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The ABCA4 c.1622T>C; p.Leu541Pro variant (rs61751392), is reported in the literature in numerous individuals affected with Stargardt disease, retinitis pigmentosa, or other related retinopathies (Briggs 2001, Rivera 2000, Rozet 1998, Wiszniewski 2005). This variant is commonly reported in cis to another missense variant, p.Ala1038Val, and the [p.Leu541Pro; p.Ala1038Val] complex variant has been reported in the homozygous and compound heterozygous states in multiple affected individuals (Briggs 2001, Rivera 2000, Wiszniewski 2005). Functional studies suggest that p.Leu541Pro, independent of p.Ala1038Val, causes protein misfolding, mislocalization, and reduced ATP binding and hydrolysis (Sun 2000, Wiszniewski 2005, Zhang 2015). The p.Leu541Pro variant is reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic by multiple laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID: 99067) and is found in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.02% (46/282812 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Briggs CE et al.

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000085410 SCV001234647 pathogenic not provided 2024-01-26 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 541 of the ABCA4 protein (p.Leu541Pro). This variant is present in population databases (rs61751392, gnomAD 0.07%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with Stargardt disease, cone-rod dystrophy, or retinitis pigmentosa (PMID: 10206579, 11527935, 16103129, 19217903, 23755871, 24509150, 26593885, 28041643). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 99067). 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, 25712131, 29847635). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

3billion RCV000408513 SCV002059063 likely pathogenic Severe early-childhood-onset retinal dystrophy 2022-01-03 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence (ClinVar ID: VCV000099067, PS1_S). In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product (REVEL: 0.983, 3CNET: 0.996, PP3_P). A missense variant is a common mechanism associated with Stargardt disease 1 (PP2_P). It is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.000163, PM2_M). Therefore, this variant is classified as likely pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline.

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences RCV004528784 SCV004106705 pathogenic ABCA4-related disorder 2024-09-06 no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The ABCA4 c.1622T>C variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Leu541Pro. This variant has been reported as causative for autosomal recessive Stargardt Disease (STGD) (see for example Rozet et al. 1998. PubMed ID: 9781034; Wiszniewski et al. 2005. PubMed ID: 16103129). This variant is frequently detected on the same chromosome (in cis) with another ABCA4 variant, c.3113C>T (p.Ala1038Val), as the complex allele p.[Leu541Pro;Ala1038Val] in patients with autosomal recessive retinal dystrophy (Burke et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22312191; Cella et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19217903; Wiszniewski et al. 2005. PubMed ID: 16103129; Klevering et al. 2004. PubMed ID: 15494742). The complex allele is reported to cause a more severe phenotype than either variant individually (Zhang et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25712131). This variant is reported in 0.068% of alleles in individuals of European (Finnish) descent in gnomAD. This variant has been classified as pathogenic by multiple independent submitters to the ClinVar database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/99067/). Given all the evidence, we interpret c.1622T>C (p.Leu541Pro) both alone and as part of the complex allele p.[Leu541Pro;Ala1038Val] as pathogenic.
