Abstract excerpt
Maple syrup urine disease (MSUD) is a rare inborn error of metabolism caused by impaired catabolism of branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs). The genes BCKDHA, BCKDHB, DBT, and DLD encode the subunits of the branched-chain α-ketoacid dehydrogenase (BCKDH) complex, which is essential for BCAA metabolism. Catalytic subunits are BCKDHA, BCKDHB, DBT, and DLD, whereas the regulator subunits are PPM1K and BCKDK. PPM1K...
