Description

SDR9C7 encodes a member of the short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase (SDR) superfamily. The enzyme is involved in retinol metabolism, specifically the oxidation of all-trans-retinol to all-trans-retinal, and plays a role in epidermal differentiation and skin barrier formation. Mutations in SDR9C7 are associated with autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis.

Disease Associations

Disease category Pathophysiological mechanism Genomic evidence
Autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis (ARCI) Loss-of-function mutations impair retinol metabolism, disrupting epidermal differentiation and barrier function. ClinVar, OMIM #617574

Mutation functional classification

Loss of Function (LOF)

Nonsense and start-loss mutations lead to truncated or absent protein, impairing retinol oxidation and skin barrier integrity.

Gain of Function (GOF)

No evidence of gain-of-function mutations reported.

Dominant Negative (DN)

Not described for SDR9C7.

Pathways

Retinol metabolism (Reactome: R-HSA-975634)
Metabolism of vitamins and cofactors (Reactome: R-HSA-196854)

Protein Summary

SDR9C7 is a 317-amino acid protein localized to the endoplasmic reticulum. It functions as a retinol dehydrogenase, catalyzing the conversion of all-trans-retinol to all-trans-retinal, a key step in retinoid signaling essential for epidermal differentiation. The protein contains a conserved NAD(P)-binding domain characteristic of the SDR family.
