Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the PDHA1 gene is commonly pathogenic or not. These statistics are base on transcript: NM_000000284.4. Only rare variants are included in the table.

In the table, we include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, Mane Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equals 1. Click the count to view the source variants.

Warning: slight differences between displayed counts and the number of variants in ClinVar may occur, primarily due to (1) the application of a different transcript and/or consequence by our variant effect predictor or (2) differences in clinical significance: we classify Benign/Likely benign variants as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic variants as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex catalyzes the overall conversion of pyruvate to acetyl-CoA and CO(2), and thereby links the glycolytic pathway to the tricarboxylic cycle. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19081061, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7782287}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Pyruvate dehydrogenase E1-alpha deficiency (PDHAD) [MIM:312170]: An enzymatic defect causing primary lactic acidosis in children. It is associated with a broad clinical spectrum ranging from fatal lactic acidosis in the newborn to chronic neurologic dysfunction with structural abnormalities in the central nervous system without systemic acidosis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1293379, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1338114, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1551669, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1909401, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27864847, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7545958, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7573035, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7757088, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7887409, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7967473, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8032855, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8199595, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8498846, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8504306, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8664900, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8844217, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9266390, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9671272}.
