Loss-of-function mutation in the canine ABCA4 gene.
(A) Sanger sequencing traces spanning positions Chr6:55,146,545–55,146,564 (CanFam3.1) in exon 28 of the ABCA4 gene of a wild-type, unaffected (ABCA4+/+) dog, a heterozygous (ABCA4+/-) dog, and a homozygous (ABCA4-/-) affected dog.

Nonsyndromic orofacial clefts (NSOC) are common congenital craniofacial developmental defects. Current evidence suggests that genetic factors, environmental exposures, and their interactions jointly contribute to the development of the disease. Owing to the high heritability of NSOC, identifying susceptibility genes and loci is a central focus of ...

Identification of splice defects due to noncanonical splice site or deep‐intronic variants in ABCA4 [PDF]
Pathogenic variants in the ATP-binding cassette transporter A4 (ABCA4) gene cause a continuum of retinal disease phenotypes, including Stargardt disease.

Stargardt disease type 1 (STGD1), the most common form of hereditary macular dystrophy, can be caused by biallelic combinations of over 2200 variants in the ABCA4 gene. This leads to reduced or absent ABCA4 protein activity, resulting in toxic metabolite

TRACE: A Framework for Integrating Transcript Relevance Into ACMG/AMP Variant Interpretation
Background Accurate clinical variant interpretation depends on the transcript used for annotation and consequence assessment. Transcript‐aware reasoning is also incorporated into existing ClinGen guidance for loss‐of‐function, splicing, functional and computational evidence and into gene‐ and disease‐specific specification.

Assessing Allele Frequency Information: A Study of Variant Curation Expert Panel Guidelines
Purpose The 2015 guidelines recommend using a large, diverse, and race‐matched reference database. However, defining expectations in this context is subjective due to factors like genetic diversity and penetrance. ClinGen forms VCEPs to provide gene‐specific interpretations of ACMG/AMP guidelines, including population information.

Protein misfolding and the pathogenesis of ABCA4-associated retinal degenerations [PDF]
Mutations in the ABCA4 gene are a common cause of autosomal recessive retinal degeneration. All mouse models to date are based on knockouts of Abca4, even though the disease is often caused by missense mutations such as the complex allele L541P;A1038V ...

Congenital stationary night blindness (CSNB) is a rare and typically nonprogressive group of genetically heterogeneous disorders resulting in impaired night vision and high myopia with varying levels of visual impairment. Despite being a rare disease with a prevalence of 1:294,000, variants in 22 genes have been associated with specific CSNB phenotypes.

The Natural History of Stargardt Disease with Specific Sequence Mutation in theABCA4Gene
To determine longitudinal changes in fundus appearance and visual function in patients with Stargardt with at least one allelic mutation (Gly1961Glu) in the ABCA4 gene.Sixteen patients with a diagnosis of Stargardt disease and a Gly1961Glu mutation were enrolled.
