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]

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 297 of the BCKDHA protein (p.Arg297Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs145901144, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with maple syrup urine disease (PMID: 16786533, 28830848). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 555477). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt BCKDHA protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Arg297 amino acid residue in BCKDHA. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 10745006, 17922217, 29306928). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: BCKDHA c.889C>T (p.Arg297Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Dehydrogenase, E1 component (IPR001017) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2e-05 in 251450 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.889C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Maple Syrup Urine Disease (examples: Rodriguez-Pombo_2006 and Cheng_2017). 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 publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 28830848, 16786533). Three submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as VUS (n=1) and pathogenic/likely pathogenic (n=2). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic. -
