Galactosemia is a disease caused by a genetic defect that affects an individual's ability to correctly metabolize galactose for use in the glycolytic pathway, but has no effect on metabolism of starch and glycogen, or on glycolysis. Galactosemia results in high galactose levels in the blood and accumulation of galactose-1-phosphate in the tissues.
e) Propose possible candidates for the defective enzyme that causes galactosemia.
