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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant located near the start codon (<100nt), not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 72 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 17-19648999-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr17-19648999-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 188833.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Uncertain_significance=1, Pathogenic=1, Likely_pathogenic=1}. Variant chr17-19648999-C-T is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic].

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina	Mar 07, 2018	The ALDH3A2 c.28C>T (p.Gln10Ter) variant is a stop-gained variant that is predicted to result in premature termination of the protein and has been reported in a heterozygous state in a Spanish individual with Sjogren-Larsson syndrome (Rizzo et al. 1999). Cultured skin fibroblasts from this individual were shown to be deficient in FALDH, but the individual's full genotype was not clearly reported. In addition, Sanabria and Coco (2011) report the p.Gln10Ter variant in a heterozygous state in two siblings with Sjogren-Larsson syndrome who were also heterozygous for an in-frame deletion variant; the phase of the variants in these individuals was not reported. Control data are unavailable for the p.Gln10Ter variant, which is reported at a frequency of 0.000383 in the East Asian population of the Exome Aggregation Consortium. However, this frequency is based on only one allele in a region of poor sequence coverage. Based on the limited evidence available and the potential impact of stop-gained variants, the p.Gln10Ter variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance but suspicious for pathogenicity for Sjogren-Larsson syndrome. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln10*) in the ALDH3A2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in ALDH3A2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10577908, 10854114). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Sjogren-Larsson syndrome (PMID: 10577908, 21968182). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 188833). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
