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]

Maple syrup urine disease Pathogenic:3
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 06, 2022For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. 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) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on BCKDHA protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 558191). This variant is also known as A209T. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with maple syrup urine disease (PMID: 8161368, 16786533, 17922217). This variant is present in population databases (rs199599175, gnomAD 0.007%). This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 253 of the BCKDHA protein (p.Ala253Thr). -
