Description

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp246*) in the GALT gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with GALT-related conditions. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. Loss-of-function variants in GALT are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 22944367). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
