Maple syrup urine disease, mild variant(MSUDMV)

MedGen UID:
767489
•Concept ID:
C3554575
•
Disease or Syndrome
Synonym: MSUDMV
 
Gene (location): PPM1K (4q22.1)
 
Monarch Initiative: MONDO:0014057
OMIM®: 615135

Definition

The mild variant of MSUD is characterized by increased plasma levels of branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) apparent at birth. Treatment with a low-protein diet free of BCAA can result in normal psychomotor development and lack of metabolic episodes; however, plasma levels of BCAA may remain elevated (summary by Oyarzabal et al., 2013). For a general description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of maple syrup urine disease, see 248600. [from OMIM]
