Description

The R1640W pathogenic variant in the ABCA4 gene has been reported previously in autosomal recessive Stargardt disease in affected individuals when in the homozgyous state or when in trans with another pathogenic variant (Battu et al., 2015; Fujinami et al., 2013; Rozet et al., 1998). The R1640W variant has been reported on the same allele (in cis) with the W1408R variant in families with Stargardt disease, and in a family presenting with both Stargardt disease and retinitis pigmentosa, when in trans with another pathogenic variant (Valverde et al, 2006; Shroyer et al, 2001). Shroyer et al. (2001) showed very little protein from cells transfected with the W1408R and R1640W variants in cis; however, proteins bearing only the W1408R or the R1640W variants appear to have mild or moderate defects in expression or stability. The R1640W 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. The R1640W variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved across species. We interpret R1640W as a pathogenic variant.

Description

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 1640 of the ABCA4 protein (p.Arg1640Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs61751404, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with ABCA4-related conditions (PMID: 9781034, 28041643, 28559085, 29925512). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 99330). 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: 11687513). This variant disrupts the p.Arg1640 amino acid residue in ABCA4. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 10711710, 11527935, 23755871, 26103963, 28118664). 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.
