What is Maple Syrup Urine Disease?

Maple syrup urine disease (MSUD) is a rare autosomal recessive inborn error in breaking down the branched-chain amino acids (leucine, isoleucine, and valine), which affects the brain tissue resulting in impairment or death if untreated. If untreated, MSUD can lead to seizures, coma, and death.

Signs and Symptoms

Possible Inheritance Modes for Maple Syrup Urine Disease

There is one inheritance mode of Maple Syrup Urine Disease. Inheritance mode is how a gene will be passed down from parent to offspring.

Autosomal Recessive

The mutated gene is a recessive gene located on one of the non-sex chromosomes (autosomes). You can get the disease if inheritance both copies of abnormal mutation from your parent.
