Genes affected

GAL (HGNC:4114): (galanin and GMAP prepropeptide) This gene encodes a neuroendocrine peptide that is widely expressed in the central and peripheral nervous systems and also the gastrointestinal tract, pancreas, adrenal gland and urogenital tract. The encoded protein is a precursor that is proteolytically processed to generate two mature peptides: galanin and galanin message-associated peptide (GMAP). Galanin has diverse physiological functions including nociception, feeding and energy homeostasis, osmotic regulation and water balance. GMAP has been demonstrated to possess antifungal activity and hypothesized to be part of the innate immune system. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2015]

Variant summary: GAL c.81G>A (p.Pro27Pro) alters a non-conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Three predict the variant weakens the canonical 5' donor site whereas one predicts the variant has no significant impact on splicing at this site. Two also predict the variant creates a 3' acceptor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. Furthermore, the mechanism of disease for this gene has yet to be established. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2e-05 in 203374 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.81G>A in individuals affected with Familial Temporal Lobe Epilepsy 8 and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. No submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
