Genes affected
BCKDHA (HGNC:986): (branched chain keto acid dehydrogenase E1 subunit alpha) The branched-chain alpha-keto acid (BCAA) dehydrogenase (BCKD) complex is an innter mitochondrial enzyme complex that catalyzes the second major step in the catabolism of the branched-chain amino acids leucine, isoleucine, and valine. The BCKD complex consists of three catalytic components: a heterotetrameric (alpha2-beta2) branched-chain alpha-keto acid decarboxylase (E1), a dihydrolipoyl transacylase (E2), and a dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase (E3). This gene encodes the alpha subunit of the decarboxylase (E1) component. Mutations in this gene result in maple syrup urine disease, type IA. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -17 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.98).
BP6
Variant 19-41397848-A-C is Benign according to our data. Variant chr19-41397848-A-C is described in ClinVar as Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 1787573.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BP7
Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-0.543 with no splicing effect.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population sas. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.0000739 (108/1461852) while in subpopulation SAS AF = 0.000893 (77/86250). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000732. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 72 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.
