A
Galactose-1-phosphate uridyl transferase
B

Galactokinase
D
Epimerase
High-Yield Explanation
(A) Galactose-1-phosphate uridyl transferase[?]GALACTOSAEMIA is a rare genetic metabolic disorder that affects an individual's ability to metabolize the sugar galactose properly.oGalactosemia follows an autosomal recessive mode of inheritance that confers a deficiency in an enzyme responsible for adequate galactose degradation.TypeEnzyme deficiencyAccumulating metabolitesIGalactose 1-phosphate uridyltransferaseGalactose, galactose-1 phosphate, galactitol, galactonateIIGalactokinaseGalactose, galactitolIIIUDP-galactose epimeraseGalactose-1 phosphate, UDP galactose
