Description
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 458 of the ALDH3A2 protein (p.Arg458Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs753900462, gnomAD 0.002%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ALDH3A2-related conditions. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt ALDH3A2 protein function. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. 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.
