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]

Deficiency of UDPglucose-hexose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase Pathogenic:1

May 23, 2023

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt GALT protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 25122). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with classic galactosemia (PMID: 22944367). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces histidine, which is basic and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 31 of the GALT protein (p.His31Asn). -

Variant summary: The GALT c.91C>A (p.His31Asn) variant involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. His31 is highly conserved across species and is located in the Galactose-1-phosphate uridyl transferase, N-terminal domain and histidine triad motif (HIT)-like domain. 3/4 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant (SNPs&GO not captured due to low reliability index). This variant was absent in 121362 control chromosomes. One clinical diagnostic laboratory classified this variant as pathogenic without providing evidence. Another missense change at this same position, p.H31R, has been reported as pathogenic (via HGMD) in a galactosemia patient reported in the literature (PMID: 20547145), suggesting H31 is critical for the normal function of GALT protein and that it is a mutational hot spot. However, only one patient has been identified to carry this variant and no functional study was available at the time of variant classification. Taken together, this variant is classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic until additional patients and/or functional studies are available. -
