Computational structural genomics and clinical evidence suggest BCKDK gain‐of‐function may cause a potentially asymptomatic maple syrup urine disease phenotype

Abstract Maple syrup urine disease (MSUD) is a disorder of branched‐chain amino acid metabolism caused by a defect in the branched‐chain α‐ketoacid dehydrogenase (BCKD) complex (OMIM #248600). The hallmark presentation is encephalopathic crisis in neonates, but can also present with metabolic decomp...
