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]

This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Sjogren-Larsson syndrome (PMID: 9250352). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu438Thrfs*21) 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). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant is also known as 1311insACAAA. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1642). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
