ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories RCV000022102 SCV001158685 likely pathogenic Deficiency of UDPglucose-hexose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase 2019-04-17 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The GALT c.394C>T; p.His132Tyr variant (rs367543256) is reported in the in individuals affected with galactosemia (Elsas 1998, Powell 2009). Functional analyses demonstrate reduced enzyme activity when in the compound heterozygous state with the Duarte allele (Powell 2009). This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 37357), and is absent from general population databases (Exome Variant Server, Genome Aggregation Database), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. Additionally, another variant at this codon (c.396C>A; p.His132Gln) has been reported in individuals with galactosemia and is considered pathogenic (Narravula 2017, Tang 2012). The histidine at codon 132 is highly conserved, and computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen-2) predict that this variant is deleterious. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be likely pathogenic. References: Elsas LJ 2nd and Lai K. The molecular biology of galactosemia. Genet Med. 1998 Nov-Dec;1(1):40-8.

Invitae RCV000022102 SCV003441335 likely pathogenic Deficiency of UDPglucose-hexose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase 2022-06-13 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing 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. This variant disrupts the p.His132 amino acid residue in GALT. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 22461411, 22944367, 28649529; Invitae). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. 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. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37357). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with galactosemia (PMID: 11261429, 19904210, 27176039). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces histidine, which is basic and polar, with tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 132 of the GALT protein (p.His132Tyr).
