Gene Details: GALT
1 / 1
General Information
Gene Name: GALT (Galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase)
Synonym:
Short Names: Gal-1-P uridylyltransferase;
Alternative Names: UDP-glucose--hexose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase;
Notes:
- Plays a role in galactose metabolism by catalyzing the second step of the Leloir pathway of galactose metabolism
- Deficiency of GALT causes classic galactosemia, an autosomal recessive inherited disorder.
