Ichthyosis and erythrokeratoderma v1.73 ALDH1L2 Catherine Snow Classified gene: ALDH1L2 as Red List (low evidence)
Ichthyosis and erythrokeratoderma v1.73 ALDH1L2 Catherine Snow Added comment: Comment on list classification: Rating red. One individual reported with neuro-ichthyotic syndrome phenotype of congenital ichthyosis with a variant in ALDH1L2 therefore not enough evidence to ascertain gene disease relationship
Ichthyosis and erythrokeratoderma v1.73 ALDH1L2 Catherine Snow Gene: aldh1l2 has been classified as Red List (Low Evidence).
Ichthyosis and erythrokeratoderma v1.60 ALDH1L2 Zornitza Stark gene: ALDH1L2 was added
gene: ALDH1L2 was added to Ichthyosis and erythrokeratoderma. Sources: Literature
Mode of inheritance for gene: ALDH1L2 was set to BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal
Publications for gene: ALDH1L2 were set to 31341639; 33168096
Phenotypes for gene: ALDH1L2 were set to pruritic ichthyosis, severe diffuse hypomyelination seen on MRI, and abnormal lipid peaks
Review for gene: ALDH1L2 was set to RED
Added comment: Individual reported with bialleleic ALDH1L2 variants (non-canonical splice and a frameshift mutation), who also has a de novo hemizygous RPS6KA3 frameshift mutation. Authors state that not all features of the individual could be explained by the RPS6KA3 variant, and that consideration of Coffin-Lowry sysndrome was only made after identification of the RPS6KA3 variant. Therefore individual has there is a blended phenotype of Coffin–Lowry syndrome and Sjögren–Larsson syndrome. From functional studies authors propose that the ALDH1L2 loss induces mitochondrial dysfunction due to reduced NADPH and increased oxidative stress (PMID: 31341639). Knockout mouse model was viable and did not show an apparent phenotype, however metabolomic analysis showed vastly changed metabotypes in the liver and plasma in these mice suggesting channeling of fatty acids away from β-oxidation. Authors therefore postulate that the role of ALDH1L2 in the lipid metabolism explains why the loss of this enzyme is associated with neuro-cutaneous disease.
