Genes affected
DBT (HGNC:2698): (dihydrolipoamide branched chain transacylase E2) The branched-chain alpha-keto acid dehydrogenase complex (BCKD) is an inner-mitochondrial enzyme complex involved in the breakdown of the branched-chain amino acids isoleucine, leucine, and valine. The BCKD complex is thought to be composed of a core of 24 transacylase (E2) subunits, and associated decarboxylase (E1), dehydrogenase (E3), and regulatory subunits. This gene encodes the transacylase (E2) subunit. Mutations in this gene result in maple syrup urine disease, type 2. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described, but their biological validity has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Cys26Trpfs*2) in the DBT gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in DBT are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16579849, 16786533). This variant is present in population databases (rs768832921, gnomAD 0.03%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with maple syrup urine disease (PMID: 8430702, 14517957, 16468966, 20639189, 28417071). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 11950). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: DBT c.75_76delAT (p.Cys26TrpfsX2) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 6.8e-05 in 251058 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in DBT causing Maple Syrup Urine Disease (6.8e-05 vs 0.0012), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.75_76delAT has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Maple Syrup Urine Disease (example: Pode-Shakked_2020). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 32151765). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 11950). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.006%). Predicted Consequence/Location: Frameshift: predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) or protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported downstream of the variant. The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic with clinical assertions and evidence for the classification (ClinVar ID: VCV000011950 /PMID: 8430702). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -
