Genes affected
ALDOB (HGNC:417): (aldolase, fructose-bisphosphate B) Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase (EC 4.1.2.13) is a tetrameric glycolytic enzyme that catalyzes the reversible conversion of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate to glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate and dihydroxyacetone phosphate. Vertebrates have 3 aldolase isozymes which are distinguished by their electrophoretic and catalytic properties. Differences indicate that aldolases A, B, and C are distinct proteins, the products of a family of related 'housekeeping' genes exhibiting developmentally regulated expression of the different isozymes. The developing embryo produces aldolase A, which is produced in even greater amounts in adult muscle where it can be as much as 5% of total cellular protein. In adult liver, kidney and intestine, aldolase A expression is repressed and aldolase B is produced. In brain and other nervous tissue, aldolase A and C are expressed about equally. There is a high degree of homology between aldolase A and C. Defects in ALDOB cause hereditary fructose intolerance. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2008]

The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.005%). Predicted Consequence/Location: Frameshift: predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) or protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported downstream of the variant. The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic with clinical assertions and evidence for the classification (ClinVar ID: VCV000188861 /PMID: 2339710). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline.

Variant summary: ALDOB c.360_363delCAAA (p.Asn120LysfsX32) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.7e-05 in 277096 control chromosomes. This frequency is not higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in ALDOB causing Hereditary Fructose Intolerance (4.7e-05 vs 0.0045), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. The c.360_363delCAAA variant has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Fructose Intolerance, both as a homozygous and compound heterozygous allele. These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

The c.360_363del pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 4 of the ALDOB gene, results from a deletion of 5 nucleotides at nucleotide positions 370 to 374, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.Asn120Lysfs*32). This mutation has been identified in a cohort of patients with fructose intolerance (PMID:17955389;2339710;26937407). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 188861). As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Asn120Lysfs*32) in the ALDOB gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in ALDOB are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 18541450). This variant is present in population databases (rs762198323, gnomAD 0.02%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with fructose intolerance (PMID: 2339710, 26937407). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 188861). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

The c.360_363delCAAA (p.N120Kfs*32) alteration, located in exon 4 (coding exon 3) of the ALDOB gene, consists of a deletion of 4 nucleotides from position 360 to 363, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon after 32 amino acids. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Based on data from gnomAD, this alteration has an overall frequency of <0.01% (14/282762) total alleles studied. The highest observed frequency was 0.02% (3/19954) of East Asian alleles. This alteration has been reported in multiple unrelated patients with hereditary fructose intolerance (Dazzo, 1990; Valadares, 2015; Kim, 2021). Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic.

The ALDOB c.360_363delCAAA variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Asn120Lysfs*32). This variant has been observed in the homozygous and compound heterozygous states in patients with hereditary fructose intolerance (described as Δ4 in Dazzo and Tolan. 1990. PubMed ID: 2339710; Alfares. 2018. PubMed ID: 30202406; Valadares et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26937407). This variant is reported in 0.015% of alleles in individuals of East Asian descent in gnomAD. Frameshift variants in ALDOB are expected to be pathogenic. In summary, this variant is interpreted as pathogenic.
