Gene Summary

Gene Symbol GALT   Gene   UCSC   Ensembl
Gene name galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase
Alternate names galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase, UDP-glucose--hexose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase, gal-1-P uridylyltransferase, galactose-1-phosphate uridyl transferase,
Gene location 9p13.3 (34646588: 34650597)     Exons: 11     NC_000009.12
Gene summary(Entrez) Galactose-1-phosphate uridyl transferase (GALT) catalyzes the second step of the Leloir pathway of galactose metabolism, namely the conversion of UDP-glucose + galactose-1-phosphate to glucose-1-phosphate + UDP-galactose. The absence of this enzyme results in classic galactosemia in humans and can be fatal in the newborn period if lactose is not removed from the diet. The pathophysiology of galactosemia has not been clearly defined. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2012]
