This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg60*) 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 (rs118204429, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with hereditary fructose intolerance (PMID: 8071980, 8299883, 15880727, 20882353, 26937407). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 472). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: The ALDOB c.178C>T (p.Arg60X) variant results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent ALDOB protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. This variant was found in 20/277036 control chromosomes (gnomAD) at a frequency of 0.0000722, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic ALDOB variant (0.0044721). Multiple publications have cited the variant in affected compound heterozygote and homozygote patients. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as likely pathogenic/pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -
Inborn genetic diseases Pathogenic:1
The c.178C>T (p.R60*) alteration, located in exon 3 (coding exon 2) of the ALDOB gene, consists of a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 178. This changes the amino acid from an arginine (R) to a stop codon at amino acid position 60. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Based on data from gnomAD, the T allele has an overall frequency of 0.0085% (24/282704) total alleles studied. The highest observed frequency was 0.01% (4/35438) of Latino alleles. This alteration has been reported in multiple patients with hereditary fructose intolerance (Brooks, 1994; Santer, 2005; Davit-Spraul, 2008; Valadares, 2015; Kim, 2021). Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -

Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease; Also reported as R59X due to alternate nomenclature; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25525159, 8299883, 8071980, 26937407, 15880727, 27604308, 20882353, 20033295, 8299892, 35398868, 18541450) -
ALDOB-related disorder Pathogenic:1
The ALDOB c.178C>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Arg60*). This variant has been reported to be causative for hereditary fructose intolerance (Brooks et al. 1994. PubMed ID: 8299883; Valadares et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26937407; Reid et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 27604308; Kim et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 33028743). Note, this is also referred to as R59op, Arg59Ter, and Arg60Ter in some literature. This variant is reported in 0.011% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD. Nonsense variants in ALDOB are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
