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:Likely benign

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: The GALT c.564+15G>A variant affects a non-conserved intronic nucleotide not widely known to impact normal splicing. Mutation Taster predicts a benign outcome for this variant, and 4/5 Alamut algorithms predict no change to the splice donor site, however these in silico predictions have not been verified with functional studies. This variant is found in 48/121384 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0003954, which does not significantly exceed maximal expected frequency of a pathogenic allele (0.0028868). This variant has been cited in one Hispanic classic GALT patient (Yang_HM_2002), authors did not provide co-segregation data, and the allele frequency in Latinos from the ExAC project is 2-fold greater (48/11576 alleles; 0.00415), thus this variant is likely a benign polymorphism found in Latinos. Additionally, multiple clinical labs/databases classify the variant as benign/likely benign without providing evidence to independently evaluate. Taken together, the variant was classified as Likely Benign until additional information becomes available. -
