Genes affected
AAAS (HGNC:13666): (aladin WD repeat nucleoporin) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the WD-repeat family of regulatory proteins and may be involved in normal development of the peripheral and central nervous system. The encoded protein is part of the nuclear pore complex and is anchored there by NDC1. Defects in this gene are a cause of achalasia-addisonianism-alacrima syndrome (AAAS), also called triple-A syndrome or Allgrove syndrome. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 06, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg312*) in the AAAS gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in AAAS are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 11159947). This variant is present in population databases (rs121918547, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with achalasia-addisonianism-alacrimia syndrome (PMID: 11062474, 29255950). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 5039). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
