Description

A homozygous missense variant in exon 7 of the GALC gene that results in the amino acid substitution of Phenylalanine for Valine at codon 247 was detected. The observed variant c.739G>T (p.Val247Phe) has not been reported in the 1000 genomes and ExAC databases. The in silico prediction of the variant is damaging by MutationTaster2. The reference codon is conserved across species. In summary, the variant meets our criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic.
