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]

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaApr 27, 2017This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases allowed determination this variant is unlikely to cause disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely benign. -

Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpFeb 08, 2017Variant summary: The BCKDHA c.116C>A (p.Pro39His) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. 3/4 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant (SNPs&GO not captured due to low reliability index). This variant was found in 11936/121154 control chromosomes (711 homozygotes) at a frequency of 0.0985192, which is approximately 59 times the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic BCKDHA variant (0.0016771), suggesting this variant is likely a benign polymorphism. This variant has been reported in multiple affected individuals who also carried other variants in BCKDHB that can explain the phenotype, and authors interpreted the variant of interest as silent variant. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as benign. Taken together, this variant is classified as benign. -
