DNA was isolated from blood samples. Variants in GALC were identified via Sanger sequencing. Parentage testing was performed using short tandem repeat markers. Prevalence of the GALC variant of interest was investigated in other breeds.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>GCL was confirmed histopathologically. A novel missense variant in GALC (NC_006590.4:g.58893972G&amp;gt;A) was homozygous in all affected animals (n\u2009=\u20094). A recessive mode of inheritance was confirmed by parentage testing as was variant linkage with the phenotype (LOD\u2009=\u20093.36). Among the related dogs (n\u2009=\u200933), 3 dogs were homozygous and 7 heterozygous. The variant allele was not detected in screening 278 dogs from 5 breeds. The novel variant is either unique to this family or has an extremely low allele frequency in the general population.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions and Clinical Importance<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A novel GALC variant was identified that likely explains GCL in this cohort.
