Genes affected
ALDH7A1 (HGNC:877): (aldehyde dehydrogenase 7 family member A1) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of subfamily 7 in the aldehyde dehydrogenase gene family. These enzymes are thought to play a major role in the detoxification of aldehydes generated by alcohol metabolism and lipid peroxidation. This particular member has homology to a previously described protein from the green garden pea, the 26g pea turgor protein. It is also involved in lysine catabolism that is known to occur in the mitochondrial matrix. Recent reports show that this protein is found both in the cytosol and the mitochondria, and the two forms likely arise from the use of alternative translation initiation sites. An additional variant encoding a different isoform has also been found for this gene. Mutations in this gene are associated with pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy. Several related pseudogenes have also been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2011]

This sequence change results in a frameshift in the ALDH7A1 gene (p.Ala533Profs*18). While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 7 amino acid(s) of the ALDH7A1 protein and extend the protein by 10 additional amino acid residues. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This frameshift has been observed in individuals with pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy (PMID: 16491085, 27186704). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as 1512delG. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 17999). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on protein structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. Experimental studies have shown that this frameshift affects ALDH7A1 function (PMID: 16491085). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
