Genes affected
GAL (HGNC:4114): (galanin and GMAP prepropeptide) This gene encodes a neuroendocrine peptide that is widely expressed in the central and peripheral nervous systems and also the gastrointestinal tract, pancreas, adrenal gland and urogenital tract. The encoded protein is a precursor that is proteolytically processed to generate two mature peptides: galanin and galanin message-associated peptide (GMAP). Galanin has diverse physiological functions including nociception, feeding and energy homeostasis, osmotic regulation and water balance. GMAP has been demonstrated to possess antifungal activity and hypothesized to be part of the innate immune system. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2015]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 1 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.2311828 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 3.9, offset of 19, new splice context is: gatgccgttggcaaccacAGgtc. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
PP3
Multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect 5: Cadd, dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF, max_spliceai, Eigen [when BayesDel_addAF, BayesDel_noAF, MutationTaster was below the threshold]
BS2
High AC in GnomAd4 at 12 AD gene.

Familial temporal lobe epilepsy 8 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpAug 03, 2018In 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. The current clinical and genetic evidence is not sufficient to establish whether loss-of-function variants in GAL cause disease. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with GAL-related disease. This variant is present in population databases (rs762777313, ExAC 0.04%). This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 3 of the GAL gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing and likely results in an absent or disrupted protein product. -
