Carnitine palmitoyltransferase II deficiency
The authors investigated 32 patients with the muscle form of CPT II deficiency. Total carnitine palmitoyltransferase enzyme system (CPT) activity was normal but abnormally inhibited by malonyl-CoA, palmitoyl-CoA, and the detergents Triton X and Tween 20. Mutation analysis identified three described mutations (S113L, P50H, and F448L) and two novel mutations (M214T and Y479F). Using modeling tech...
متن کاملCrystal structure of rat carnitine palmitoyltransferase II (CPT-II).
Carnitine palmitoyltransferase II (CPT-II) has a crucial role in the beta-oxidation of long-chain fatty acids in mitochondria. We report here the crystal structure of rat CPT-II at 1.9A resolution. The overall structure shares strong similarity to those of short- and medium-chain carnitine acyltransferases, although detailed structural differences in the active site region have a significant im...
متن کاملCarnitine palmitoyltransferase II deficiency: successful anaplerotic diet therapy.
BACKGROUND Carnitine palmitoyltransferase II (CPT II) deficiency is an important cause of recurrent rhabdomyolysis in children and adults. Current treatment includes dietary fat restriction, with increased carbohydrate intake and exercise restriction to avoid muscle pain and rhabdomyolysis. METHODS CPT II enzyme assay, DNA mutation analysis, quantitative analysis of acylcarnitines in blood an...
متن کاملDetection of neonatal carnitine palmitoyltransferase II deficiency by expanded newborn screening with tandem mass spectrometry.
The introduction of tandem mass spectrometry to newborn screening has substantially expanded our ability to diagnose metabolic diseases in the newborn period. We report the first case of neonatal carnitine palmitoyltransferase deficiency II detected by expanded newborn screening with tandem mass spectrometry. The neonate presented with dysmorphic facial features, structural malformations, renal...
متن کاملA surviving 24-month-old patient with neonatal-onset carnitine palmitoyltransferase II deficiency
The early-onset form of carnitine palmitoyltransferase (CPT) II deficiency has severe outcomes; patients typically die during the newborn period. We report a case of neonatal-onset CPT II deficiency with prolonged survival, exceeding 24 months. The patient was successfully treated by continuous hemodialysis (CHD), which enabled her to overcome repeated crises. We suggest that early intensive tr...
