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]

The W53R variant has not been published as a pathogenic variant, nor has it been reported as a benign variant to our knowledge. The W53R variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved across species, and in silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. Missense variants in nearby residues (R48C, R51L/Q, G55C) have been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database in association with galactosemia (Stenson et al., 2014), supporting the functional importance of this region of the protein. Therefore, this variant is likely pathogenic; however, the possibility that it is benign cannot be excluded. -

This sequence change replaces tryptophan with arginine at codon 53 of the GALT protein (p.Trp53Arg). The tryptophan residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between tryptophan and arginine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GALT-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 430221). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
