Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000085428 SCV001223382 pathogenic not provided 2025-01-09 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 602 of the ABCA4 protein (p.Arg602Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs61749409, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with Stargardt disease and autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa (PMID: 16103129, 23755871). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 99084). 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%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects ABCA4 function (PMID: 16103129). This variant disrupts the p.Arg602 amino acid residue in ABCA4. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 20696155, 22449572, 23982839, 25472526, 25910913). 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.

The variant is present at low allele frequencies population databases (rs61749409 – gnomAD 0.0004385%; ABraOM 0.001708 frequency - http://abraom.ib.usp.br/) - PM2_supporting. The p.(Arg602Trp) was detected in trans with a pathogenic variant (PMID: 28181551; PMID: 16103129; PMID: 24444108; PMID: 23982839; PMID: 23755871) - PM3. The variant co-segregated with disease in multiple affected family members (PMID: 16103129) - PP1. Multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect on the gene or gene product - PP3. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic.
Molecular Genetics, Royal Melbourne Hospital RCV000408597 SCV002503795 pathogenic Severe early-childhood-onset retinal dystrophy 2023-03-30 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change is predicted to replace arginine with tryptophan at codon 602 of the ABCA4 protein, p.(Arg602Trp). The arginine residue is moderately conserved (100 vertebrates, UCSC), and is present in the extracellular domain. There is a moderate physicochemical difference between arginine and tryptophan. The variant is present in a large population cohort 0.004%, which is consistent with recessive disease (rs61749409, 11/250,870 alleles, 0 homozygotes in gnomAD v2.1). It has been reported compound heterozygous with another pathogenic allele and homozygous most commonly in Stargardt disease cases, and also cases of cone-rod dystrophy and retinitis pigmentosa co-segregating with disease (PMID: 9973280, 16103129, 23695285). In vitro functional assays demonstrate that the missense substitution prevents correct localisation of the protein in to the rod outer segment, and perturbs ATPase activity (PMID: 16103129). Additionally, 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, PS3_Supporting, PP1, PP3.
3billion, Medical Genetics RCV002250560 SCV002521184 pathogenic Retinitis pigmentosa 19 2022-05-22 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.004%). In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product (REVEL: 0.93; 3Cnet: 0.99). Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence (ClinVar ID: VCV000099084). The variant has been reported to be in trans with other pathogenic variant(s) as either compound heterozygous or homozygous in at least 2 similarly affected unrelated individuals (PMID: 16103129). A different missense change at the same codon (p.Arg602Gln) has been reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence (ClinVar ID: VCV000099085). Therefore, this variant is classified as pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline.

In vitro functional studies demonstrated that this variant results in protein mis-folding and mis-localization [PMID: 16103129]. This variant has been observed in many individuals with autosomal recessive retinopathy, in homozygosity, or with another variant in ABCA4 gene, including null variants and missense variants [PMID: 16103129, 30093795, 9973280, 23755871, 32619608, 29186038]. This variant has been found to co-segregate with retinitis pigmentosa, Stargardt disease 1 or Cone-rod dystrophy in multiple families (PMID: 16103129, 23755871, 32619608, 29114839). Multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect on the gene/gene product (REVEL = 0.934). This variant has multiple submissions in ClinVar (Variation ID: 99084).
