Genes affected

BCKDHB (HGNC:987): (branched chain keto acid dehydrogenase E1 subunit beta) This gene encodes the E1 beta subunit of branched-chain keto acid dehydrogenase, which is a multienzyme complex associated with the inner membrane of mitochondria. This enzyme complex functions in the catabolism of branched-chain amino acids. Mutations in this gene have been associated with maple syrup urine disease (MSUD), type 1B, a disease characterized by a maple syrup odor to the urine in addition to mental and physical retardation and feeding problems. Alternative splicing at this locus results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.976
• PP5: Variant 6-80129179-T-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr6-80129179-T-G is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 224054.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_pathogenic=1, Uncertain_significance=1, Pathogenic=1}.

Variant summary: BCKDHB c.293T>G (p.Val98Gly) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 251058 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.293T>G has been observed in individuals affected with Maple Syrup Urine Disease (Gupta_2015). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 26257134). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 224054). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic. -
