概要 |
Hypervalinemia and hyperleucine-isoleucinemia is a very rare disease caused by mutations in BCAT2 that catalyze the first step in branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) catabolism. BCAT2 deficiency results in a distinctive biochemical profile with raised plasma BCAA levels, and may be associated with developmental delay and autism spectrum disorder in some cases. However, its phenotype appears to be extremely variable.
