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]

Significance:Likely pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: GALT c.857A>G (p.Tyr286Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Galactose-1-phosphate uridyl transferase, C-terminal domain (IPR005850) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 251490 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.857A>G has been reported in the presumed compound heterozygous state in the literature in at least 1 individual affected with Galactosemia (example, Zaffanello_2005). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect results in <10% of normal activity in patient erythrocytes (example, Zaffanello_2005). The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 15775761). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 38486). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

Significance:Likely pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 286 of the GALT protein (p.Tyr286Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs367543262, gnomAD 0.06%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with galactosemia (PMID: 15775761). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 38486). 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 with a positive predictive value of 95%. 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. -
