Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000169304 SCV000952978 pathogenic Maple syrup urine disease 2024-04-02 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg285*) in the BCKDHB gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BCKDHB are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16786533, 22593002). This variant is present in population databases (rs398124598, gnomAD 0.03%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with maple syrup urine disease (PMID: 14517957, 24772966, 25333063). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 96615). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV001193356 SCV001362116 pathogenic Maple syrup urine disease type 1B 2019-01-21 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: The variant, BCKDHB c.853C>T (p.Arg285X) 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 4.5e-05 in 245582 control chromosomes (gnomAD and publication). This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in BCKDHB causing Maple Syrup Urine Disease Type 1B (4.5e-05 vs 0.0015), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. The variant, c.853C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Maple Syrup Urine Disease Type 1B (Imtiaz_2017, Bashyam_2012, Quental_2008, Gorzelany_2009, Henneke_2003, Rodriguez-Pombo_2006), which one individual was reported to have <10% normal activity (Rodriguez-Pombo_2006). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

National Newborn Screening Laboratory, Hospital Nacional de Niños RCV000169304 SCV002097374 pathogenic Maple syrup urine disease criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This is a null variant in a gene where the loss of function is a known disease mechanism, resulting in a truncated protein by creating a premature stop codon. This variant is present in population databases in low frequency (gnomAD exomes: 0,00004, ExAC: 0,000008). It has been published in the literature associated with individuals with MSUD (PMID:14517957, 16786533, 34556729).
3billion, Medical Genetics RCV000169304 SCV002572541 pathogenic Maple syrup urine disease 2022-09-01 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.004%). This stop-gained (nonsense) variant is 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 homozygous variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic with clinical assertions and evidence for the classification (ClinVar ID: VCV000096615/ PMID: 14517957). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline.
