Popis: Multiple acyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase deficiency (MADD), or glutaric aciduria type II (GAII), is a group of clinically heterogeneous disorders caused by mutations in electron transfer flavoprotein (ETF) and ETF-ubiquinone oxidoreductase (ETFQO) - the two enzymes responsible for the re-oxidation of enzyme-bound flavin adenine dinucleotide (FADH2) via electron transfer to the respiratory chain at the level of coenzyme Q10. Over the past decade, an increasing body of evidence has further coupled mutations in FAD metabolism (including intercellular riboflavin transport, FAD biosynthesis and FAD transport) to MADD-like phenotypes. In this review we provide a detailed description of the overarching and specific metabolic pathways involved in MADD. We examine the eight associated genes (ETFA, ETFB, ETFDH, FLAD1, SLC25A32 and SLC52A1-3) and clinical phenotypes, and report ∼436 causative mutations following a systematic literature review. Finally, we focus attention on the value and shortcomings of current diagnostic approaches, as well as current and future therapeutic options for MADD and its phenotypic disorders.
