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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJul 08, 2016Variant summary: The ALDH3A2 c.471+1delG variant involves the alteration of a conserved intronic nucleotide located at the invariable GT site at the border of intron 3. One in silico tool predicts a damaging outcome for this variant along with 5/5 splice tools predicting the variant to result in the weakening/elimination of the splice donor site in intron 3. These predictions have been confirmed by studies investigating SLS patients who carried the variant and demonstrated that the variant results in altered mRNA and the absence of the full length protein product. This variant was absent in 121396 control chromosomes, but has been reported in multiple SLS patients in either homozygosity or compound heterozygosity with other splice site or frameshift variants, suggesting pathogenicity. In addition, a clinical diagnostic laboratory classified this variant as Likely Pathogenic via ClinVar (without evidence to independently evaluate). Taken together, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -
not provided Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 12, 2023This sequence change affects a splice site in intron 3 of the ALDH3A2 gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and likely results in a shortened protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs786204741, gnomAD 0.003%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with Sjogren-Larsson syndrome (PMID: 10854114, 21872273). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 189163). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in skipping of exons 2-3, but is expected to preserve the integrity of the reading-frame (PMID: 10854114, 21872273). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
