RCV001376405 | SCV001573529 | likely pathogenic | Severe early-childhood-onset retinal dystrophy | 2021-04-08 | criteria provided, single submitter | research | The ABCA4 c.442+2T>A variant was identified in an individual with retinitis pigmentosa with a presumed recessive inheritance pattern. Through a review of available evidence we were able to apply the following criteria: PVS1, PM2. Based on this evidence we have classified this variant as Likely Pathogenic. |

RCV002550236 | SCV003341594 | likely pathogenic | not provided | 2022-05-16 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 4 of the ABCA4 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in ABCA4 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10958761, 24938718, 25312043, 26780318). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ABCA4-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1065733). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. |
