Description

In fibroblasts derived from a patient with classic maple syrup urine disease (MSUD1A; 248600), Wynn et al. (1998) identified compound heterozygosity for 2 mutations in the BCKDHA gene: a G-to-A transition resulting in a gly204-to-ser (G204S) substitution and Y393N (608348.0001). Detailed functional expression studies in E. coli found that the G204S protein showed slow assembly kinetics with the E1-beta subunit compared to wildtype (over 2 hours versus 10 to 20 minutes), although tetramers were formed. Enzyme activity was undetectable and the G204S protein showed decreased thermal stability compared to wildtype.

Description

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 249 of the BCKDHA protein (p.Gly249Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs137852874, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with maple syrup urine disease (PMID: 9582350, 20431954, 31980395). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is also known as Gly204Ser. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 2380). 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: 9582350). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic.
