Hereditary neuropathy or pain disorder
Gene: GALC
Gene rated Amber : From feedback from Genomics England Clinical team (Anna de Burca and Meriel McEntagart). Extension of panel scope - syndrome with non-neurological features / Broader phenotype - Krabbe diseaseCreated: 6 Dec 2019, 8:14 p.m. | Last Modified: 6 Dec 2019, 8:14 p.m.
Panel Version: 0.58
Comment on list classification: This gene has changed ratings because the panel for R78 was going to be a broad panel (to include conditions where neuropathy is part of a more complex phenotype or where there is overlap with another neurological presentation eg. HSP) but subsequently during the follow up call on 21st June with the Test Group it was agreed that it was more clinically relevant for R78 to be restricted to genes that are associated with isolated neuropathy, which this panel represents.

Phenotypes for gene: GALC were changed from Krabbe. Spastic paraplegia, developmental delay, optic atrophy; Krabbe disease, 245200; adult onset has spastic paraplegia and sensory-motor axonal neuropathy with slow or normal conduction velocities, MRI shows leukodystrophy to Krabbe disease, OMIM:245200
Gene: galc has been classified as Amber List (Moderate Evidence).
gene: GALC was added gene: GALC was added to Hereditary neuropathy NOT PMP22 copy number. Sources: NHS GMS,London North GLH Mode of inheritance for gene: GALC was set to BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal Phenotypes for gene: GALC were set to Krabbe.
