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]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 4.8, offset of 7, new splice context is: tcctttacctccggacccAGtga. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
Variant 9-34647655-A-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr9-34647655-A-C is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 25154.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
