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]

The p.Ala338Val variant in ALDOB has been reported in at least 5 homozygous and 5 compound heterozygous individuals with hereditary fructose intolerance and segregated with disease in 2 affected individuals from 1 family (Rellos 1999 PMID: 10229688, Davit-Spraul 2008 PMID: 18541450, Coffee 2010 PMID: 20033295, Bijarnia-Mahay 2015 PMID: 25595217). It has also been identified in 0.6% (2/316) Middle Eastern and 0.03% (13/41434) of African chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID 188739). Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. In vitro functional studies provide some evidence that this variant decreases binding affinity of the protein and results in a partially denatured protein (Rellos 1999 PMID: 10229688). In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for autosomal recessive hereditary fructose intolerance.

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 338 of the ALDOB protein (p.Ala338Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs77718928, gnomAD 0.06%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hereditary fructose intolerance (PMID: 9610797, 25595217). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is also known as A337V. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 188739). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects ALDOB function (PMID: 10229688). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Variant summary: ALDOB c.1013C>T (p.Ala338Val) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00015 in 249676 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in ALDOB causing Hereditary Fructose Intolerance (0.00015 vs 0.0045), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1013C>T has been reported in the literature as homozygous and compound heterozygous genotypes in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Fructose Intolerance (example, Rellos_1999, Gunduz_2021). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function (Rellos_1999). The most pronounced variant effect results in preferentially decreased affinity and activity towards its specific F-1-P substrate. Seven clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

The missense c.1013C>T(p.Ala338Val) variant in ALDOB gene has been reported previously in homozygous and compound heterozygous states in multiple individuals affected with hereditary fructose intolerance (Gunduz M, et al., 2021; Bijarnia-Mahay S, et al., 2015). Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects ALDOB function (Rellos P, et al., 1999). The p.Ala338Val variant is present with allele frequency of 0.01% in gnomAD Exomes. This variant has been reported to the ClinVar database as Likely Pathogenic / Pathogenic. Multiple lines of computational evidences (Polyphen - Probably damaging, SIFT - Damaging and MutationTaster - Disease causing) predict a damaging effect on protein structure and function for this variant. The reference amino acid at this position on ALDOB gene is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. The amino acid Ala at position 338 is changed to a Val changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Another significant variant [c.127C>T p.Arg43Cys] in NAGLU gene has been detected in heterozygous state in the spouse. -
