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]

Maple syrup urine disease Pathogenic:4
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingBaylor GeneticsMay 24, 2023- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 12, 2023This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 251 of the BCKDHB protein (p.Val251Ala). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with maple syrup urine disease (PMID: 11112664, 14517957, 15884622, 16786533, 19282776). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 96608). 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 BCKDHB protein function. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Maple syrup urine disease type 1B Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJul 25, 2023Variant summary: BCKDHB c.752T>C (p.Val251Ala) 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 250890 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.752T>C has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Maple Syrup Urine Disease (examples: Nellis_2001, Henneke_2003, Rodriguez-Pombo_2006, Tayeh_2009). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect results in <10% of normal activity (examples: Henneke_2003, Rodriguez-Pombo_2006). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 14517957, 16786533, 19282776, 11112664). Four submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
