Genes affected

ALDH3A2 (HGNC:403): (aldehyde dehydrogenase 3 family member A2) Aldehyde dehydrogenase isozymes are thought to play a major role in the detoxification of aldehydes generated by alcohol metabolism and lipid peroxidation. This gene product catalyzes the oxidation of long-chain aliphatic aldehydes to fatty acid. Mutations in the gene cause Sjogren-Larsson syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: ALDH3A2 c.1108-1G>C is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: four predict the variant abolishes a 3' acceptor site. A publication also reported experimental evidence confirming that this variant affects mRNA splicing, resulting in exon skipping (Rizzo_1999). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251256 control chromosomes. c.1108-1G>C has been reported in the literature in multiple homozygous and compound heterozygous individuals affected with Sjogren-Larsson Syndrome (Rizzo_1999, Carney_2004, Auada_2006). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Publications also reported experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, and demonstrated <10% of normal activity in fibroblasts derived from homozygous patients (Carney_2004, Auada_2006). One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation, and classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 7 of the ALDH3A2 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in ALDH3A2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10577908, 10854114). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.003%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with Sjogren-Larsson syndrome (PMID: 10577908, 15241804). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 370452). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
