Consanguinity and rare mutations outside of MCCC genes underlie nonspecific phenotypes of MCCD. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Purpose3-Methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase deficiency (MCCD) is an autosomal recessive disorder of leucine catabolism that has a highly variable clinical phenotype, ranging from acute metabolic acidosis to nonspecific symptoms such as developmental delay ...

Novel homozygous missense mutation in ALDH7A1 causes neonatal pyridoxine dependent epilepsy

open access: yesMolecular and Cellular Probes, 2017
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.

An Atypical Presentation of Pyridoxine-Dependent Epilepsy Diagnosed with Whole Exome Sequencing and Treated with Lysine Restriction and Supplementation with Arginine and Pyridoxine

open access: yesCase Reports in Genetics, 2022
Pyridoxine dependent-developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (PD-DEE) or pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy (PDE) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in ALDH7A1.

Prevalence of ALDH7A1 mutations in 18 North American pyridoxine‐dependent seizure (PDS) patients [PDF]

open access: yesEpilepsia, 2009
SummaryPurpose:  Pyridoxine‐dependent seizure (PDS) is a rare disorder characterized by seizures that are resistant to common anticonvulsants, and that are ultimately controlled by daily pharmacologic doses of pyridoxine (vitamin B6). Mutations of the antiquitin gene (ALDH7A1) are now recognized as the molecular basis of cases of neonatal‐onset PDS ...

The case of pyridoxine dependent epilepsy misdiagnosed as non-ketotic hyperglycinemia

open access: yesThe Turkish Journal of Pediatrics, 2019
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.

An intriguing “silent” mutation and a founder effect in antiquitin (ALDH7A1)

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, 2007
AbstractRecently, α‐aminoadipic semialdehyde (α‐AASA) dehydrogenase deficiency was shown to cause pyridoxine‐dependent epilepsy in a considerable number of patients. α‐AASA dehydrogenase deficiency is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by a neonatal‐onset epileptic encephalopathy in which seizures are resistant to antiepileptic drugs but ...

A case of pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy with novel ALDH7A1 mutation

open access: yes, 2023
Abstract Background Pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy (PDE) is a rare autosomal recessive disease, usually associated with neonatal seizures, about 75% of the patients suffered from intellectual or developmental delay (IDD). Antiepileptic drugs are often difficult to control seizures or incomplete control, but pyridoxine administration can ...

A large genomic deletion leads to enhancer adoption by the lamin B1 gene: a second path to autosomal dominant adult-onset demyelinating leukodystrophy (ADLD) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Chromosomal rearrangements with duplication of the lamin B1 (LMNB1) gene underlie autosomal dominant adult-onset demyelinating leukodystrophy (ADLD), a rare neurological disorder in which overexpression of LMNB1 causes progressive central nervous system ...
