Hydrolyzes the galactose ester bonds of glycolipids such as galactosylceramide and galactosylsphingosine (PubMed:8281145, PubMed:8399327). Enzyme with very low activity responsible for the lysosomal catabolism of galactosylceramide, a major lipid in myelin, kidney and epithelial cells of small intestine and colon (PubMed:8281145, PubMed:8399327)
Lysosome
Krabbe disease
An autosomal recessive disorder characterized by insufficient catabolism of several galactolipids that are important for normal myelin production. Four clinical forms are recognized. The infantile form accounts for 90% of cases. It manifests before six months of age with irritability, spasticity, arrest of motor and mental development, and bouts of temperature elevation without infection. This is followed by myoclonic jerks of arms and legs, oposthotonus, hypertonic fits, and mental regression, which progresses to a severe decerebrate condition with no voluntary movements and death from respiratory infections or cerebral hyperpyrexia before 2 years of age. Cases with later onset present with unexplained blindness, weakness and sensorimotor peripheral neuropathy, mental deterioration and death.
Protein insertase that mediates insertion of transmembrane proteins into the mitochondrial outer membrane (PubMed:36264797). Catalyzes insertion of proteins with alpha-helical transmembrane regions, such as signal-anchored, tail-anchored and multi-pass membrane proteins (By similarity). Does not mediate insertion of beta-barrel transmembrane proteins (By similarity). May play a role in apoptosis (PubMed:12377771)

Clinical and molecular characterization of Krabbe disease in Iranian patients: case report and literature review.
Krabbe disease (KD, OMIM #245200) is a rare autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder characterized by severe demyelination affecting both the central and peripheral nervous systems. Here we report the clinical and molecular findings of two unrelated Iranian patients with KD, originating from consanguineous families. Genetic analysis was initially performed using whole-exome sequencing (WES), then validated by Sanger sequencing. WES identified a novel homozygous variant in the GALC, c.836T > G (p.L279X), in patient-1. In patient-2, WES detected a previously reported homozygous variant, c.578T > C (p.I193T), in the GALC. Sanger sequencing confirmed homozygosity of these variants in the affected patients and heterozygosity in their parents. The affected brother of patient-2 was also homozygous for the variant c.578T > C. The pathogenicity of the detected variants was supported by various lines of evidence, including in silico predictive tools, segregation analysis, and population genetic databases frequency. Our findings expand the mutational spectrum of GALC and highlight the clinical heterogeneity of KD. Morover, these finding contribute to improved genotype-phenotype correlations, which are essential for accurate diagnosis, prognostic valuation, and genetic counseling.
Sphingolipid-neutralizing molecular therapy reduces psychosine cytotoxicity in Krabbe disease.
The deficiency of β-galactosylceramidase causes a lysosomal leukodystrophy, known as Krabbe disease (KD), resulting in elevated psychosine (PSY) levels, which are highly cytotoxic to myelin-forming cells. 2-hydroxypropyl-α-CD (HPaCD), a cyclic-oligosaccharide containing a lipophilic central cavity and hydrophilic outer surfaces, significantly reduces PSY cytotoxicity in cultured KD patient cells. Further 1H-NMR studies revealed stronger interactions between HPaCD and PSY. Regarding safety, HPaCD-treated mice showed no electrophysiological and histological ototoxicity signs. In the murine KD model, HPaCD improved neurobehavior and reduced PSY levels in the CNS and PNS. The reduction of astrogliosis, increased myelin basic protein, and improvements in PNS axonal-myelin morphometrics were also observed in HPaCD-treated mice. In summary, this is an innovative therapeutic approach that leverages HPaCD's dual properties of molecularly shielding and neutralizing PSY and facilitating its CNS and PNS clearance. Since several newborn screening programs currently include KD, HPaCD becomes highly important as an adjunctive/bridge therapy for improving outcomes in this devastating disorder.
Very late-onset Krabbe disease with concomitant dementia: case description and a critical review of the literature.
Krabbe disease (KD) is a rare autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder caused by pathogenic variants in GALC. Despite accounting only for 5% of forms, reports of adult-onset KD cases are increasingly described. A female patient manifesting KD after the age of 60 years, presenting with spastic paraplegia and cognitive decline, is described. The scientific literature of KD with onset > 10 years has been extensively reviewed to refine the spectrum of later-onset KD manifestations. Including ours, we identified 84 KD adolescent/adult-onset patients (mean age at onset 28.7 ± 14.2 years). Most patients had limb spasticity as main characterizing neurological feature (58/84, 70.2%), followed by polyneuropathy (11/ 84, 13.1%), both upper and lower motor neuron signs (2/84, 2.4%), and epilepsy (2/84, 2.4%). Five out of 84 patients (6.0%) were asymptomatic. Most patients had cortico-spinal tracts involvement at brain MRI. The most common pathogenic GALC variants were the c.1901 T > C (18 patients), the c.857G > A (13 patients), and the c.1161 + 6532_polyA + 9kbdel (13 patients). Complicated spastic paraplegia is the most common manifestation in later-onset KD, rarely with normal brain MRI. KD should be always considered also in cases with very late-onset spastic paraplegia.

Long-term neurological outcome after hematopoietic stem cell transplant in juvenile Krabbe disease.
Globoid cell leukodystrophy (GLD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease caused by galactocerebrosidase deficiency. Juvenile phenotypes-onset between ages 3 and 16-account for up to 25% of cases. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is the only available treatment, yet only eight juvenile-onset cases treated with HSCT have been reported, with heterogeneously collected data. We aim to comprehensively evaluate long-term neurological outcomes post-HSCT in juvenile GLD. We conducted a retrospective study of all juvenile GLD patients treated with HSCT and followed at our Institution. We assessed survival, neurological status, disability (modified Rankin Scale), cognitive outcomes, GALC activity, serial MRIs (Loes score), evoked potentials (internal scoring system), and nerve conduction studies at pre-HSCT, first post-HSCT visit, and last follow-up. Six biochemically and genetically confirmed juvenile GLD cases were included. Four were symptomatic at diagnosis; two were pre-symptomatic. All survived to last follow-up (range 9 years, 2 months-19 years, and 8 months). Four achieved near-normal cognitive, motor, and functional status. Two symptomatic patients-with extensive pre-HSCT white matter disease and specific pre-HSCT clinical features (epilepsy and cognitive impairment)-had suboptimal outcomes. Loes scores stabilized/improved in four patients; GALC enzyme activity normalized in all. Electrophysiological measures mostly remained stable. HSCT significantly impacts the natural history of juvenile GLD, resulting in largely optimal long-term outcomes, preserved quality of life, and minimal disability. Standardized pre-transplant assessments are critical. High pre-HSCT Loes scores, epilepsy, and cognitive impairment could be prognostic indicators, highlighting the importance of early intervention based on comprehensive instrumental evaluations.
Caregiver-reported disease burden in Krabbe disease: evaluating outcomes of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
Krabbe disease (KD) is a rapidly progressive neurodegenerative disorder caused by β-galactocerebrosidase deficiency. While KD has been added to the Recommended Uniform Screening Panel (RUSP), only 15 states have an active KD newborn screening (NBS) program. It is uncertain at what rate states will adopt RUSP recommendations, with a frequently cited barrier being the absence of investigations addressing the impact of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) on quality-of-life. We developed a 90-minute caregiver interview to gather qualitative and quantitative data (including the validated Leukodystrophy Quality-of-Life Assessment – LQLA) evaluating patient/family-centered outcomes of HSCT. The interview was designed to explore the following: 1) disease burden on the patient; 2) physical burden on the caregiver; and 3) emotional/social burden on the caregiver. Comparisons were made between children not transplanted/transplanted late and children transplanted early. Infantile KD (IKD) and late infantile KD (LIKD) were analyzed independently. Forty caregivers participated (non-transplanted/transplanted late: IKD = 19, LIKD = 7; transplanted early: IKD = 10, LIKD = 4). Analysis of the LQLA revealed a relative reduction in disease burden in both IKD and LIKD groups who were transplanted early. Specifically, the early transplanted cohorts achieved statistically significant higher overall scores on the LQLA, as well as better scores in various subcategories in comparison to their non-transplanted/transplanted late counterparts. For IKD, analysis of Likert scale and weighted analysis demonstrated a tendency towards decreased physical burden on caregivers of children transplanted early. Although all groups experienced significant social/emotional burdens, caregivers of IKD transplanted early benefitted from improved sleep, mental health, and familial/spousal relationships compared to IKD non-transplanted/transplanted late. This study provides convincing evidence that HSCT improves quality-of-life and reduces caregiver burden in IKD. The evidence is somewhat less clear for LIKD due to the small LIKD sample size. This data will be critical in the decision-making process for states not currently screening for KD but debating the addition of KD to their NBS panels. Lastly, it will allow families to weigh the risks and benefits of HSCT more confidently when contemplating the life-altering decision of whether to proceed with transplantation.
