Two novel ALDH7A1 (antiquitin) splicing mutations associated with pyridoxine‐dependent seizures [PDF]
SummaryPyridoxine‐dependent seizures (PDS) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder causing intractable seizures in neonates and infants. Patients are typically resistant to conventional anticonvulsants but respond well to the administration of pyridoxine.

Restricting lysine normalizes toxic catabolites associated with ALDH7A1 deficiency in cells and mice
Lysine metabolism converges at α-aminoadipic semialdehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH7A1). Rare loss-of-function mutations in ALDH7A1 cause a toxic accumulation of lysine catabolites, including piperideine-6-carboxylate (P6C), that are thought to cause fatal seizures in children unless strictly managed with dietary lysine reduction.

The genotypic and phenotypic spectrum of pyridoxine‐dependent epilepsy due to mutations in ALDH7A1 [PDF]
AbstractPyridoxine‐dependent epilepsy is a disorder associated with severe seizures that may be caused by deficient activity of α‐aminoadipic semialdehyde dehydrogenase, encoded by the ALDH7A1 gene, with accumulation of α‐aminoadipic semialdehyde and piperideine‐6‐carboxylic acid.

Aldehyde Dehydrogenase 7A1 (ALDH7A1) Is a Novel Enzyme Involved in Cellular Defense against Hyperosmotic Stress [PDF]
Mammalian ALDH7A1 is homologous to plant ALDH7B1, an enzyme that protects against various forms of stress, such as salinity, dehydration, and osmotic stress. It is known that mutations in the human ALDH7A1 gene cause pyridoxine-dependent and folic acid-responsive seizures.

The case of pyridoxine dependent epilepsy misdiagnosed as non-ketotic hyperglycinemia
Pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy (PDE) is a rare but an important condition, since early diagnosis and treatment result in normal or near normal psychomotor development. It is caused by mutations in the Antiquitin (ALDH7A1) gene.

Novel homozygous missense mutation in ALDH7A1 causes neonatal pyridoxine dependent epilepsy
Pyridoxine dependent epilepsy (PDE) (OMIM#266100) is a neonatal form of epilepsy, caused by dysfunction of the enzyme α-aminoadipic semialdehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH7A1 or Antiquitin). This enzyme converts α-aminoadipic semialdehyde (α-AASA) into α-aminoadipate (AAA), a critical step in the lysine metabolism of the brain.

Pyridoxine dependent epilepsy (PDE) is caused by mutations in the ALDH7A1 gene (PDE-ALDH7A1) encoding α-aminoadipic-semialdehyde-dehydrogenase enzyme in the lysine catabolic pathway resulting in an accumulation of α-aminoadipic-acid-semialdehyde (α-AASA).
