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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Baylor Genetics	Feb 20, 2024	- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Dec 24, 2018	Variant summary: GALT c.329-2A>C is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Five predict the variant abolishes a 3' acceptor site. These predictions are supported by the evidence that patient with homozygous allele has no measurable GALT activity (Zekanowsko_1999). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2e-05 in 246254 control chromosomes. c.329-2A>C has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Galactosemia (Elsas_1995, Zekanowski_1999, Zekanowski_2001, Boutron_2012, Bosch_2005). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect results in unmeasurable activity (Zekanowski_1999). Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Oct 19, 2023	This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 3 of the GALT gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in GALT are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 22944367). This variant is present in population databases (rs111033667, gnomAD 0.007%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with galactosemia (PMID: 7887416, 10399107). This variant is also known as IVS3nt-2A>C. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 25154). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
