Genetic basis of alpha‐aminoadipic and alpha‐ketoadipic aciduria

Abstract: Alpha-aminoadipic and alpha-ketoadipic aciduria is an autosomal recessive inborn error of lysine, hydroxylysine, and tryptophan degradation. To date, DHTKD1 mutations have been reported in two alpha-aminoadipic and alpha-ketoadipic aciduria patients. We have now sequenced DHTKD1 in nine patients diagnosed with alpha-aminoadipic and alpha-ketoadipic aciduria as well as one patient with isolated alpha-aminoadipic aciduria, and identified causal mutations in eight. We report nine novel mutations, including three … Show more

“…The patients with variants in ARHGEF10 and IKBKAP belonged to the no/low neuropathy group, in agreement with the fact that activating rather than LOF mutations in ARHGEF10 cause CMT (46) and that no phenotype is observed for IKBKAP heterozygous individuals (47). The variant in DHTKD1 was present in two patients with different neuropathy, but recent data question the role of this gene in CMT disease (48,49). Among the remaining LOF variants, two affected EPHA genes (EPHA5 and EPHA8) and corresponded to high-neuropathy patients.…”

“…Mutations in DHTKD1 lead to a defect in KADHC activity and cause α-aminoadipic and αketoadipic aciduria (Danhauser et al, 2012;Hagen et al, 2015), a condition that is currently regarded as a biochemical phenotype of questionable clinical significance, which means that it can be diagnosed through biochemical and genetic methods, but is considered not harmful (Fischer and Brown, 1980;Fischer et al, 1974;Goodman and Duran, 2014). This observation led to the hypothesis that GA1 can be treated through substrate reduction by inhibiting DHTKD1, which was speculated to divert the accumulation of neurotoxic glutaryl-CoA into less harmful accumulation of α-aminoadipic and α-ketoadipic acid.…”

“…The identification of DHTKD1 mutations in individuals with α-aminoadipic and α-ketoadipic aciduria suggests that DHTKD1 is essential for the conversion of α-ketoadipic acid into glutaryl-CoA (Danhauser et al, 2012;Hagen et al, 2015;Stiles et al, 2016). Additional evidence was provided by the study of the BXD recombinant inbred mouse strains.…”

“…2-Aminoadipic and 2-oxoadipic aciduria (OMIM 204750) is an inborn error of metabolism with questionable clinical consequence [20], characterized biochemically by increased urinary excretion of 2-oxoadipate and its transamination product 2-aminoadipate [21,22]. Among < 30 reported cases due to autosomal recessive missense and nonsense mutations [23], p.Gly729Arg and p.Arg455Gln are common variants. Additionally, a nonsense DHTKD1 mutation causes Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2Q (CMT2Q, OMIM 615025), an autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disorder characterized by motor and sensory neuropathies [24].…”
