Background

Although the pathogenicity of the prominin-1 (PROM1) gene has already been described as associated with autosomal dominant Stargardt disease, little is known about sequence variations in this gene.

Purpose

The aim of this study was to evaluate PROM1 gene sequence variations in patients with macular dystrophy.

Material and methods

This retrospective study evaluated variations in the PROM1 gene detected by next-generation sequencing test in patients with macular dystrophy and Stargardt disease.

Results

Of 25 medical records of patients with Stargardt disease, three records of patients with PROM1 gene sequence variations were selected for the study. The p.Asp776Val and p.Asp829Asn variants were detected in cases 1 and 2, respectively, and predicted to be pathogenic; they were probably responsible for macular dystrophy in these patients. Case 3 showed a p.Ala643Gly variant in the PROM1 gene and a single variation in the ABCA4 gene, but molecular testing results were inconclusive.

Conclusions

In cases of Stargardt disease, where molecular testing results are inconclusive for pathogenic variations in the ABCA4 gene, variations in the PROM1 gene may occur and be considered responsible for the disease in the molecular analysis. This study described three cases in which variations in PROM1 gene may play a role in the pathogenesis of macular dystrophy or be associated with both autosomal recessive and autosomal dominant inheritance."xsd:string
