    1. ABCA4

      Case#: 1 male, 6 years old, from Taiwanese and Korean decent.

      DiseaseAssertion: ABCA4-related retinopathy Stargardt disease

      FamilyInfo: Single affected individual. Paternal uncle presented with Stargart disease previously, and Taiwanese and Korean descent underwent genetic testing to identify two pathogenic variants in the ABCA4 gene. One of the variants found was the same ABCA4 variant from the originally affected individual. No additional family information is provided in text.

      CaseNotHPOFreeText: Relatively normal foveal architecture.

      Genotyping Method: Genetic analysis was performed using Sanger sequencing for the NDP gene, which revealed no pathogenic variants. Exome sequencing was then used with the Illumina HiSeq 2500 platform, which identified two compound heterozygous variants in the ABCA4 gene. Lastly, no mutations were found in the TINF2 gene.
