Genes affected

GALC (HGNC:4115): (galactosylceramidase) This gene encodes a lysosomal protein which hydrolyzes the galactose ester bonds of galactosylceramide, galactosylsphingosine, lactosylceramide, and monogalactosyldiglyceride. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Krabbe disease, also known as globoid cell leukodystrophy. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

GALC Gene-Disease associations (from GenCC):

• Krabbe disease

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 8 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 94 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 16 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 0.18582 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: -0.28853 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to Krabbe disease.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.955
• PP5: Variant 14-87941433-A-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr14-87941433-A-C is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 30615.Status of the report is no_assertion_criteria_provided, 0 stars.
