Indo et al (J Clin Invest 80:63-70 1987) reported that lymphoblasts from this patient had BCKDH enzyme activity which showed hyperbolic kinetics for overall activity which was reduced from normal activity. Both fibroblasts and lymphoblasts showed an absence of E2 (dihydrolipoyl transacylase) protein component of the BCKDH complex using an immunoblot analysis. The E1A and E1B (branched-chain alpha-keto acid decarboxylase) and the E3 (dihydrolipoyl dehydrogenase) proteins exhibited cross-reactive peptide. Fisher et al (J Biol Chem 264:3448-3453 1989) reported that this cell culture has a type IV molecular phenotype for MSUD. Type IVs show markedly reduced E2 mRNA and E2 subunits. The authors measured the mRNA and subunit contents of the branched-chain a-keto acid dehydrogenase complex in normal and GM01366 lymphoblasts. They observed that the content of E2 mRNA is markedly lower in GM01366 lymphoblasts than in normal cells whereas the level of E1A mRNA appears to be normal in GM01366 cells. The reduced E2 mRNA level is consistent with the absence of E2 subunit in GM01366 lymphoblasts. The E1A subunit is present in normal abundance in GM01366 lymphoblasts. Litwer et al (J Biol Chem 264:14597-14600 1989) used an RNase protection assay to show the absence of transcripts for preE2b mRNA when compared with transcripts in cells with wildtype BCKD activity.
