Maple syrup urine disease Pathogenic:1Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 159 of the BCKDHA protein (p.Arg159Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs769688327, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with maple syrup urine disease (PMID: 8161368, 28830848). This variant is also known as R114W. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 553759). 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. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects BCKDHA function (PMID: 11069910). This variant disrupts the p.Arg159 amino acid residue in BCKDHA. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 26257134, 31980395). 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. -
