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]

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. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

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. -

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. -
