Case #: Male, 60 years old

DiseaseAssertion: He was diagnosed with late-onset Stargardts disease.

FamilyInfo: Has a family history with his father possibly having macular degeneration.

CasePresentingHPOs: HP:0007401, HP:0025010, HP:0012045 (sub-retinal/yellow), HP:0030602

CaseHPOFreeText: Proband presents with blurry vision (right eye) from over the past two years, with the right eye having 20/40 vision, while the left was 20/20. In addition to this, through dilation scattered subretinal yellow flecks and macular atrophy bilaterally, were revealed. The flecks were hyperautofluorescent. Obscuration of background choroidal fluorescence and window defects were also found. As well as foveal atrophy and hyperreflective deposits (RPE).

CaseNotHPOs: None found

CaseNotHPOFreeText: No abnormalities in the anterior segment examination. Through a full-field electroretinogram, normal rod and cone responses were found.

Genotyping Method: The genotyping was done through the use of target enrichment and next-generation sequencing.

Variant: 1) NM_000350.3(ABCA4):c.5461-10T>C 2) NM_000350.3(ABCA4):c.5603A>T (p.Asn1868Ile)

ClinVar: 1) 92870 2) 99390

CAID: N/a

gnomAD: 1) Highest minor allele frequency was 0.00031 (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/92870/) 2) Highest minor allele frequency was 0.05787 (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/99390/)

SupplementalData: I was able to find a variant (NM_000350.3(ABCA4):c.[5461-10T>C;5603A>T]) that addresses both of the variants. Also, Fig.1 shows the phenotype of the proband through tests.

Case#: Female, age 44 years old

DiseaseAssertion: Discordant STGD phenotype

FamilyInfo: Information revolving the sister of this patient is given as well as they both have a discordant STGD phenotype. Additionally, it mentions that the parents each harboured a mutation but were asymptomatic/had normal examination results.

CasePresentingHPOs: HP:0001141, HP:0007401, HP:0030602

CaseHPOFreeText: At 23 central vision was deteriorating and patient had a VA of 6/36 in the right eye and 6/60 in the left. Through fundus photography, bilateral yellow/white flecks were found at the posterior pole. 12 years later, her VA was retested and it was 6/60 in both eyes. After autofluorescnece (AF) imaging was done, there was localized low signal at the macula found with abnromal foci. In 2008 her macular atrophy had enlarged and the flecks were less apparent.

CaseNotHPOs: N/a

CaseNotHPOFreeText: In this article there was not a phenotype presented that was normal.

CasePreviousTesting: It mentioned that there were two previously reported variants on the same allele detected in the siblings and one unique novel variant on the second allele for this patient. However, the testing they used was not listed, it just stated that the variants were found through sequencing. For this patient the variants were p.L541P/p.A1038V and p.R881C.

GenotypingMethod: Just mentioned sequencing and ABCA4 screening to look for two variants p.L541V and p.A1038V and a third novel variant p.R881C.

Variant: 1) NM_000350.3(ABCA4):c.1622T>C (p.Leu541Pro) 2) NM_000350.3(ABCA4):c.3113C>T (p.Ala1038Val) 3) N/a

ClinVar ID: 1) 99067 2) 7894 3) N/a

**CAID: ** 3) Because there was not a reference or alternate allele provided in this article I was unable to find a CAID for p.R881C.

gnomAD: 1) Highest minor allele frequency was 0.00017 (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/99067/) 2) Highest minor allele frequency was 0.00188 (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/7894/) 3) N/a

SupplementalData: Figure 1 had information regarding imaging and other testing done on the patient that is vital for phenotypic characterization. Also, it mentions a variant known as p.R881C, but was unable to find anything on ClinVar or gnomAD.

Case#: Patient 9, female, Mexican, symptoms onset 6 yrs. ago, Mexico City

DiseaseAssertion: IRD

FamilyInfo: parents are non-sanguineous and asymptomatic, they also denied any history related to ocular diseases. Information disclosed that the mother had one stillbirth and three miscarriages, but denied any related diseases/health issues to this child.

CasePresentingHPOs: HP:00305, HP:00080, HP:0000493, HP:0025586, HP:0030329, HP:0012713

CaseHPOFreeText: Proband presented with light sensitivity as well as adaptation difficulties when going from dark-to-light. Right eye was 20/200 and left eye was 20/160 from the visual acuity test. Macular bull's eye appearance. Subnormal rod and cone responses. Peripapillary sparing retina.

CaseNotHPOs: HP:0007737, HP:0000750, HP:0000510

CaseNotHPOFreeText: No afferent pupillary defect. No anomalies in anterior segment.

Genotyping Method: QIAamp DNA Blood Kit was used to extract gDNA and quantification/purity of the sample was found using a NanoDrop 2000 spectrophotometer. 293 genes were sequenced. gDNA was sequenced via Illumina technology. Following, certain sequences were additionally analyzed against a reference genome in order to identify changes and interpret.
