Deficiency of UDPglucose-hexose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase Pathogenic:1Uncertain:1
This sequence change affects codon 135 of the GALT mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the GALT protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with galactosemia (Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 281069). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. 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. -
The GALT c.405G>A, p.Ser135Ser variant (rs141232328), to our knowledge, is not reported in the medical literature but is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 281069). This variant is only observed on one allele in the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. The variant is a synonymous substitution at a weakly conserved nucleotide and computational analyses (Alamut Visual Plus v.1.5.1) predict that this variant may impact splicing by creating a novel cryptic acceptor splice site. Due to limited information, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain at this time. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Variant summary: GALT c.405G>A alters a conserved nucleotide resulting in a synonymous change. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Two predict the variant creates a cryptic 5' donor site. Three predict the variant creates a cryptic 3' acceptor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251490 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.405G>A has been reported in the literature in at least one individual affected with Galactosemia and consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant (Invitae). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 27308838, Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 281069). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
