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 replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 291 of the DBT protein (p.Arg291Leu). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of maple syrup urine disease (Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 457147). 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 DBT protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: DBT c.872G>T (p.Arg291Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the 2-oxoacid dehydrogenase acyltransferase, catalytic domain of the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251456 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.872G>T has been observed in one individual affected with Maple Syrup Urine Disease (internal data). Since the penetrance of Maple Syrup Urine Disease (0) due to this variant appears to be lower than expected (0.8), no conclusions can be drawn from these data. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 457147). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
