Genes affected

GALT (HGNC:4135): (galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase) Galactose-1-phosphate uridyl transferase (GALT) catalyzes the second step of the Leloir pathway of galactose metabolism, namely the conversion of UDP-glucose + galactose-1-phosphate to glucose-1-phosphate + UDP-galactose. The absence of this enzyme results in classic galactosemia in humans and can be fatal in the newborn period if lactose is not removed from the diet. The pathophysiology of galactosemia has not been clearly defined. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2012]

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change disrupts the translational stop signal of the GALT mRNA. It is expected to extend the length of the GALT protein by 49 additional amino acid residues. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant results in an extension of the GALT protein. Other variant(s) that result in a similarly extended protein product (p.*380Argext*49) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 10649501, 15633893, 20213376, 34030713). This suggests that these extensions are likely to be disease-causing. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 25336). This protein extension has been observed in individual(s) with galactosemia (PMID: 15841485, 28065439). -
