Defects in these transcription factors cause one form of bare lymphocyte syndrome.

1. Glucogenic amino acids- which are degraded to pyruvate, α-ketoglutarate, succinyl-CoA, fumarate, or oxaloacetate and are therefore glucose precursors

2. Ketogenic amino acids- which are broken down to acetyl-CoA or acetoacetate and can thus be converted to fatty acids or ketone bodies
