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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 22, 2022This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 46 of the ALDOB protein (p.Arg46Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs41281039, gnomAD 0.009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with fructose intolerance (PMID: 20848650). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 30979). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects ALDOB function (PMID: 20848650). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpDec 13, 2021Variant summary: ALDOB c.136A>T (p.Arg46Trp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.4e-05 in 251192 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in ALDOB causing Hereditary Fructose Intolerance (4.4e-05 vs 0.0045), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.136A>T has been reported in the literature as a non-informative genotype (second allele not specified) in at-least one individual affected with Hereditary Fructose Intolerance who was reported as having mild hypoglycemia and ketosis after ingestion of fructose, and a marked aversion to sweets and fruit (example, Espositio_2021). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function (Esposito_2021). The most pronounced variant effect results in impaired catalysis towards Fructose-1-Phosphate (F1P) without producing any functional alteration in Fructose 1,6-biphosphate (FBP) metabolism. Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation (VUS, n=2; Likely Pathogenic, n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic. -

ALDOB-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesJun 21, 2023The ALDOB c.136A>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg46Trp. This variant was reported in the heterozygous state in an individual with suspected fructose intolerance; however, no additional potential causative variant was identified in this individual (Esposito et al. 2010. PubMed ID: 20848650). This variant is reported in 0.0085% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/9-104192225-T-A). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
