Description

This sequence change replaces histidine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 132 of the GALT protein (p.His132Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs367543256, gnomAD 0.004%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with galactosemia (PMID: 22461411, 22944367, 28649529; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 25170). 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. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GALT function (PMID: 22461411). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Description

Variant summary: GALT c.396C>A (p.His132Gln) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Galactose-1-phosphate uridyl transferase, N-terminal domain (IPR005849) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251696 control chromosomes (gnomAD and publication data). c.396C>A has been reported in the literature in compound heterozygous individuals affected with Galactosemia (Carney_2009, Tang_2012, Boutron_2012, Cocanougher_2015). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. At least one functional study showed this variant disrupts the active site of the enzyme and results in in active enzyme (Tang_2012). Two ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as pathogenic and likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
