Genes affected
B4GALT7 (HGNC:930): (beta-1,4-galactosyltransferase 7) This gene is a member of the beta-1,4-galactosyltransferase (beta4GalT) family. Family members encode type II membrane-bound glycoproteins that appear to have exclusive specificity for the donor substrate UDP-galactose. Each beta4GalT member has a distinct function in the biosynthesis of different glycoconjugates and saccharide structures. As type II membrane proteins, they have an N-terminal hydrophobic signal sequence that directs the protein to the Golgi apparatus which then remains uncleaved to function as a transmembrane anchor. The enzyme encoded by this gene attaches the first galactose in the common carbohydrate-protein linkage (GlcA-beta1,3-Gal-beta1,3-Gal-beta1,4-Xyl-beta1-O-Ser) found in proteoglycans. This enzyme differs from other beta4GalTs because it lacks the conserved Cys residues found in beta4GalT1-beta4GalT6 and it is located in cis-Golgi instead of trans-Golgi. Mutations in this gene have been associated with the progeroid form of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

Submissions by phenotype

Ehlers-Danlos syndrome progeroid type Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJun 20, 2022In 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with B4GALT7-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs774824237, gnomAD 0.1%). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 17 of the B4GALT7 protein (p.Arg17Gly). -
Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsFeb 15, 2023The c.49A>G (p.R17G) alteration is located in exon 1 (coding exon 1) of the B4GALT7 gene. This alteration results from a A to G substitution at nucleotide position 49, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 17 to be replaced by a glycine (G). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
