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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 29, 2024This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 363 of the BCKDHA protein (p.Arg363Trp). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of maple syrup urine disease (PMID: 19480318, 30228974, 34738771; Invitae). This variant is also known as R318W. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 558581). 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 BCKDHA protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
