Flashcard 190: What is the most common mode of inheritance of pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency?
_____
Answer: X-linked
Extra: Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex deficiency is most commonly caused by an X-linked mutation in the PDHA1 gene (E1-alpha subunit). Although inherited on the X chromosome, it often presents in females due to skewed X-inactivation (lyonization), which is why it is often described as X-linked dominant.
