RCV000085436 | SCV000564520 | likely pathogenic | not provided | 2015-11-12 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The G618E missense variant in the ABCA4 gene has been reported previously in association with Cone-rod dystrophy (Klevering et al., 2004), The G618E variant was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved across species, and in silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. Missense variants in the same (G618R/W) and nearby residues (E616K, Q623R) have been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database in association with ABCA4-related disorders (Stenson et al., 2014), supporting the functional importance of this region of the protein. Therefore, this variant is likely pathogenic; however, the possibility that it is benign cannot be excluded. |
