Protein Variants Comment Organism
G349S drastic reduction of activity when expressed in COS cells, missense mutation causes GALK deficiency Homo sapiens
additional information the two deletions, of 410delG and 509-510delGT , occur at the nucleotide repeats GGGGGG and GTGTGT, respectively and result in in-frame nonsense codons at amino acids 163 and 201. These mutations arise by slipped strand mispairing Homo sapiens
R256W drastic reduction of activity when expressed in COS cells, missense mutation causes GALK deficiency Homo sapiens
T344M drastic reduction of activity when expressed in COS cells, missense mutation causes GALK deficiency Homo sapiens
