Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 23 ACMG points: 23P and 0B. PS1PM1PM2PM5PP2PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000155.4(GALT):​c.558C>A​(p.His186Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another nucleotide change resulting in the same amino acid substitution has been previously reported as Pathogenic in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. H186N) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

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]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 23 ACMG points.

PS1
Transcript NM_000155.4 (GALT) is affected with MISSENSE_VARIANT having same AA change as one Pathogenic present in ClinVar.
PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 12 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 7 uncertain in NM_000155.4
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr9-34648163-C-A is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 439749.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
PP2
Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 104 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 17 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 0.91493 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 1.8645 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to galactosemia, classic galactosemia.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.991
PP5
Variant 9-34648165-C-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr9-34648165-C-A is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 281075.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

This sequence change replaces histidine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 186 of the GALT protein (p.His186Gln). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GALT-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 281075). 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%. This variant disrupts the p.His186 amino acid residue in GALT. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 22944367; Invitae). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. 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. -
