Genes affected
GALNT3 (HGNC:4125): (polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 3) This gene encodes UDP-GalNAc transferase 3, a member of the GalNAc-transferases family. This family transfers an N-acetyl galactosamine to the hydroxyl group of a serine or threonine residue in the first step of O-linked oligosaccharide biosynthesis. Individual GalNAc-transferases have distinct activities and initiation of O-glycosylation is regulated by a repertoire of GalNAc-transferases. The protein encoded by this gene is highly homologous to other family members, however the enzymes have different substrate specificities. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg162*) in the GALNT3 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in GALNT3 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15133511, 20358599). This variant is present in population databases (rs137853086, gnomAD 0.09%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with tumoral calcinosis (PMID: 15133511, 24668887, 25351881, 26337219). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 7792). 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. -
