Genes affected
ALDH4A1 (HGNC:406): (aldehyde dehydrogenase 4 family member A1) This protein belongs to the aldehyde dehydrogenase family of proteins. This enzyme is a mitochondrial matrix NAD-dependent dehydrogenase which catalyzes the second step of the proline degradation pathway, converting pyrroline-5-carboxylate to glutamate. Deficiency of this enzyme is associated with type II hyperprolinemia, an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by accumulation of delta-1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate (P5C) and proline. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2009]

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

The ALDH4A1 c.21delG (p.Leu8SerfsTer23) variant results in a frameshift and is predicted to cause a truncation of the protein. The p.Leu8SerfsTer23 variant has been reported in one study in which it is found in a total of two individuals with hyperprolinemia including in one in a homozygous state and in one in a compound heterozygous state with a second missense variant (Geraghty et al. 1998). Control data are unavailable for this variant, which is reported at a frequency of 0.000058 in the European (non-Finnish) population of the Genome Aggregation Database. Based on the evidence and the potential impact of frameshift variants, the p.Leu8SerfsTer23 variant is classified as likely pathogenic for hyperprolinemia. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -
