Invitae RCV000003794 SCV000631399 pathogenic Deficiency of UDPglucose-hexose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase 2024-01-30 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 333 of the GALT protein (p.Arg333Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs111033800, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with classic or Duarte variant galactosemia (PMID: 1897530, 10384398, 10399107, 18207281, 25592817). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 3610). 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 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GALT function (PMID: 1897530, 11152465, 12208137). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories RCV000003794 SCV001158634 pathogenic Deficiency of UDPglucose-hexose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase 2018-07-31 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The GALT c.997C>T; p.Arg333Trp variant (rs111033800) has been described in the compound heterozygous state in multiple individuals and families affected with classic or Duarte galactosemia (Ashino 1995, Carney 2009, Feillet 2008, Hirokawa 1999, Hughes 2009, Knerr 2013, Reichardt 1991, Viggiano 2015, Zaffanello 2005, Zekanowski 1999). This variant is reported as pathogenic by multiple laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID: 3610), and is found in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.002% (5/246258 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. In vitro functional studies of the variant protein demonstrates impaired GALT enzyme function (Reichardt 1991, Riehman 2001). Additionally, other variants at this codon (p.Arg333Gln, p.Arg333Gly, p.Arg333Leu) have been reported in individuals with galactosemia and are considered pathogenic (Leslie 1992, Ng 2003, Singh 2012, Tyfield 1999). Based on available information, the p.Arg333Trp variant is considered pathogenic. REFERENCES Ashino J et al. Molecular characterization of galactosemia (type 1) mutations in Japanese.
