متن کاملIsolated sulfite oxidase deficiency: MR imaging features.
Isolated sulfite oxidase deficiency is a rare autosomal inherited disorder of the normal degradation of sulfur-containing amino acids. Premature death in infancy secondary to severe neurologic deterioration is the usual outcome. This article provides an analysis, in temporal form, of brain imaging findings in this disorder.
متن کاملSulfite oxidase deficiency in a newborn.
Isolated sulfite oxidase deficiency is a rare, autosomal recessive disease with a very poor prognosis. This condition usually presents in the neonatal period and is mainly characterized by neurological abnormalities, including refractory seizures, abnormal muscle tone, abnormal movements, and marked developmental delay. The differentiation from hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy is difficult based...
متن کاملMolybdenum Cofactor and Sulfite Oxidase Deficiency
A universal molybdenum-containing cofactor is necessary for the activity of all eukaryotic molybdoenzymes. In humans four such enzymes are known: Sulfite oxidase, xanthine oxidoreductase, aldehyde oxidase and a mitochondrial amidoxime reducing component. Of these, sulfite oxidase is the most important and clinically relevant one. Mutations in the genes MOCS1, MOCS2 or GPHN all encoding cofactor...
متن کاملMolecular Basis of Sulfite Oxidase Deficiency from the Structure of Sulfite Oxidase
The molybdenum-containing enzyme sulfite oxidase catalyzes the conversion of sulfite to sulfate, the terminal step in the oxidative degradation of cysteine and methionine. Deficiency of this enzyme in humans usually leads to major neurological abnormalities and early death. The crystal structure of chicken liver sulfite oxidase at 1.9 A resolution reveals that each monomer of the dimeric enzyme...
