ALDOB wt Allele

**Semantic type:** Gene or Genome

**Definition:** Human ALDOB wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 9q31.1 and is approximately 29 kb in length. This allele, which encodes fructose-bisphosphate aldolase B protein, plays a role in fructose catabolism and in both glycolysis and gluconeogenesis. Mutation of the gene is associated with hereditary fructose intolerance.
