" /> Dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase deficiency - CISMeF





Preferred Label : Dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase deficiency;

Symbol : DLDD;

CISMeF acronym : DLDD;

Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;

Alternative titles and symbols : E3 deficiency; Lipoamide dehydrogenase deficiency, lactic acidosis due to; Dld deficiency; Maple syrup urine disease, type III;

Description : DLD deficiency is an autosomal recessive metabolic disorder characterized biochemically by a combined deficiency of the branched-chain alpha-keto acid dehydrogenase complex (BCKDC), pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC), and alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex (KGDC). This is the result of E3 being a common component of all 3 mitochondrial multienzyme complexes. Clinically, affected individuals have lactic acidosis and neurologic deterioration due to sensitivity of the central nervous system to defects in oxidative metabolism. E3 deficiency is often associated with increased urinary excretion of alpha-keto acids, such as pyruvate (summary by Hong et al., 1996). E3 deficiency can also be associated with increased concentrations of branched-chain amino acids, as observed in maple syrup urine disease (MSUD; 248600), and is sometimes referred to as 'MSUD type III,' although patients with E3 deficiency have additional biochemical defects (Chuang and Shih, 2001; Robinson, 2001).;

Inheritance : Autosomal recessive;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase gene (DLD, 238331.0001);

Laboratory abnormalities : Elevated pyruvate (in most patients); Hypoglycemia; Abnormal liver enzymes (in some patients); Elevated branched-chain amino acids (in most patients); Decreased activities of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, the alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex, and the branched-chain alpha-keto acid dehydrogenase complex; Elevated alpha-ketoglutarate (in most patients);

Prefixed ID : #246900;
