Genes affected
ST3GAL5 (HGNC:10872): (ST3 beta-galactoside alpha-2,3-sialyltransferase 5) Ganglioside GM3 is known to participate in the induction of cell differentiation, modulation of cell proliferation, maintenance of fibroblast morphology, signal transduction, and integrin-mediated cell adhesion. The protein encoded by this gene is a type II membrane protein which catalyzes the formation of GM3 using lactosylceramide as the substrate. The encoded protein is a member of glycosyltransferase family 29 and may be localized to the Golgi apparatus. Mutation in this gene has been associated with Amish infantile epilepsy syndrome. Transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Submissions by phenotype

GM3 synthase deficiency Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 18, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp49*) in the ST3GAL5 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in ST3GAL5 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15502825, 22990144, 27232954). This variant is present in population databases (rs778265926, gnomAD 0.0009%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ST3GAL5-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 572904). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
