HMBS gene mutations and hydroxymethylbilane synthase activity in acute intermittent porphyria: A systematic review [PDF]
Background: Acute intermittent porphyria (AIP) is caused by a partial deficiency of hydroxymethylbilane synthase and affects heme biosynthesis. Mutations in the HMBS gene result in HMBS deficiency. AIP is a rare disease, and there been insufficient studies on it.

A novel heterozygous mutation in the HMBS gene in a patient with acute intermittent porphyria and posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome. [PDF]
Acute intermittent porphyria (AIP) is a rare inherited disorder, which is caused by the partial deficiency of hydroxymethylbilane synthase (HMBS), an enzyme of the heme biosynthetic pathway. Abdominal pain, neuropsychiatric disturbance and neuropathy are the typical manifestations of the disease.

Molecular study of the hydroxymethlybilane synthase gene (HMBS) among Polish patients with acute intermittent porphyria † ‡ [PDF]
Acute intermittent porphyria (AIP), an autosomal dominant disorder of heme biosynthesis, is due to mutations in hydroxymethylbilane synthase (HMBS; or porphobilinogen deaminase, PBGD) gene. In this study, we analyzed 20 Polish patients affected by AIP and we were able to characterize seven novel mutations.
