Sequence analysis on the RNA showed loss of exons 3 and 4. DNA analysis revealed the presence of a 5,576 bp deletion defined by two short direct repeats of about 40 bp and two Alu sequences. The first breakpoint was located in intron 2 at nucleotide 12490, the second was located in intron 4 at nucleotide 18067.

Comments: Mutations in the ABCA4 gene have been associated with autosomal recessive Stargardt disease (STGD1), cone-rod dystrophy (CRD), and retinitis pigmentosa (RP). We employed a recently developed genotyping microarray, the ABCR400-chip, to search for known ABCA4 mutations. In those patients with STGD1 on whom we identified at least one ABCA4 mutation, we performed direct sequencing. This molecular analysis revealed us novel missense, nonsense and splicing mutations. In conclusion, we have shown that the ABCA4 mutation chip is an efficient first screening tool for arSTGD.

Comments: Mutations in the ABCA4 gene have been associated with autosomal recessive Stargardt disease (STGD1), cone-rod dystrophy (CRD), and retinitis pigmentosa (RP). We employed a recently developed genotyping microarray, the ABCR400-chip, to search for known ABCA4 mutations. In those patients with STGD1 on whom we identified at least one ABCA4 mutation, we performed direct sequencing. This molecular analysis revealed us novel missense, nonsense and splicing mutations. In conclusion, we have shown that the ABCA4 mutation chip is an efficient first screening tool for arSTGD.
