Hepatic lipase deficiency. Clinical, biochemical, and molecular genetic characteristics.
Hepatic lipase (HL) is an important enzyme in the metabolism of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins and high density lipoproteins. The clinical syndrome of HL deficiency is rare and difficult to identify. We studied carriers of mutant HL to ascertain whether there are distinctive clinical and/or biochemical characteristics of the heterozygous state. In an Ontario kindred, compound heterozygosity for...
متن کاملTRNT1 deficiency: clinical, biochemical and molecular genetic features
BACKGROUND TRNT1 (CCA-adding transfer RNA nucleotidyl transferase) enzyme deficiency is a new metabolic disease caused by defective post-transcriptional modification of mitochondrial and cytosolic transfer RNAs (tRNAs). RESULTS We investigated four patients from two families with infantile-onset cyclical, aseptic febrile episodes with vomiting and diarrhoea, global electrolyte imbalance durin...
متن کاملClinical, biochemical and molecular genetic correlations in adenylosuccinate lyase deficiency.
Adenylosuccinate lyase (ADSL) deficiency (MIM 103050) is an autosomal recessive inborn error of purine synthesis characterized by the accumulation in body fluids of succinylaminoimidazolecarboxamide (SAICA) riboside and succinyladenosine (S-Ado), the dephosphorylated derivatives of the two substrates of the enzyme. Because ADSL-deficient patients display widely variable degrees of psychomotor r...
متن کاملBiochemical and molecular genetic characteristics of the severe form of tyrosine hydroxylase deficiency.
BACKGROUND Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) catalyzes the rate-limiting step in the biosynthesis of the catecholamines dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine. Recently, mutations were identified in cases of autosomal recessive dopa-responsive dystonia and infantile parkinsonism. We describe a patient with severe symptoms and a new missense mutation in TH. METHODS Relevant metabolites in urine and...
متن کاملBiochemical and clinical characteristics of creatine deficiency syndromes.
Creatine deficiency syndromes are a newly described group of inborn errors of creatine synthesis (arginine:glycine amidinotransferase (AGAT) deficiency and guanidinoacetate methyltransferase (GAMT) deficiency) and of creatine transport (creatine transporter (CRTR) deficiency). The common clinical feature of creatine deficiency syndromes is mental retardation and epilepsy suggesting main involve...
