Dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase (DLD) deficiency, also known as maple syrup urine disease type III, is a rare autosomal recessive disorder. DLD functions as the E3 subunit of three mitochondrial enzyme complexes: branched chain alpha-ketoacid dehydrogenase, alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, and pyruvate dehydrogenase. DLD deficiency variably presents with either a severe neonatal encephalopathic phenotype or a primarily hepatic phenotype.
