Deficiency of galactokinase

Synonyms

Galactokinase deficiency galactosemia

Definitions

A rare mild form of galactosaemia characterised by early onset of cataract and an absence of the usual signs of classic galactosaemia, i.e. feeding difficulties, poor weight gain and growth, lethargy and jaundice. Patients generally have elevated plasma galactose and increased urinary excretion of galactitol. They develop cataracts during the first weeks or months of life as a result of accumulation of galactitol in the lens. Patients are otherwise healthy. Caused by mutations in the GALK1 gene (17q24) coding for the galactokinase enzyme. The disorder is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner.
