Mutations in BCKD-kinase Lead to a Potentially Treatable Form of Autism with Epilepsy
Open accessAbstract
A Fine Balance: Intellectual and neurological disabilities can arise from diverse developmental aberrations. Novarino et al. (p. 394 , published online 6 September; see the Perspective by Beaudet ) have now determined the genetic basis for one such disorder for a small group of patients. Exome sequencing led to identification of mutations in a kinase BCKDK ( Branched Chain Ketoacid Dehydrogenase Kinase ) that regulates metabolism of branched-chain amino acids such as valine, leucine, and isoleucine. Mice with homozygous mutations in the BCKDK gene showed developmental and neurological abnormalities resembling those in certain mouse autism models. Analysis of transport mechanisms responsible for carrying amino acids across the blood-brain barrier revealed competition between the branched-chain amino acids and large neutral amino acids. Nutritional supplementation with extra branched-chain amino acids in the diet of mice carrying homozygous mutations in the BCKDK gene normalized their phenotype.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
