| Allelic Variant 1 |
606999.0006; GALACTOSEMIA |
| Identified Mutation |
GLN188ARG; Reichardt et al. [Am J Hum Genet 49: 860 (1991)] demonstrated a transition at nucleotide 591 that substituted arginine for glutamine-188. The mutated glutamine is not only highly conserved in evolution, but is also 2 amino acid residues downstream from the active site histidine-proline-histidine triad. Lymphoblasts from subjects homozygous for the GLN188ARG mutation show essentially no detectable GALT activity [Fridovich-Keil and Jinks-Robertson. Proc Nat Acad Sci USA 90: 398 (1993)]. |

606999.0007; GALACTOSEMIA |
| Identified Mutation |
LEU74PRO; Reichardt et al. [Biochemistry 31: 5430-5433 (1992)] characterized two galactosemia (230400) mutations, L74P and F171S (606999.0008), and one polymorphism, S135L, in the GALT gene. Both mutations resulted in reduced enzymatic activity on expression studies, whereas the polymorphism resulted in near normal activity. Both mutations involved evolutionarily conserved residues, while the polymorphism occurred in a nonconserved domain. |
| Remarks |
Clinically affected; affected brother is GM17436; donor subject is a compound heterozygote: one allele carries an A-to-G transition at nucleotide 591 (591A>G) in the GALT gene, resulting in a gln188-to-arg substitution [GLN188ARG (Q188R)] and the second allele carries a T to C transition at nucleotide 249 (249T>C), resulting in an leu74-to-pro substitution [LEU74PRO (L74P)]. |
