Galactosemia is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner when one faulty gene is acquired from each of the carrier parents. The mutations responsible are as follows [1]:

====Duarte variant====  : GALT gene dysfunction causes reduction of enzyme activity to 50 % [2] ===Type II galactosemia=== : Abnormality in the GALK1 gene [3] ===Type III galactosemia=== : Variation in the activity of the GALE gene [4] ===Type IV galactosemia=== :Biallelic mutations in the GALM gene [5]
