Improvement in the production of the human recombinant enzyme N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfatase (rhGALNS) in Escherichia coli using synthetic biology approaches

Scientific Reports, 2017
Previously, we demonstrated production of an active recombinant human N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfatase (rhGALNS) enzyme in Escherichia coli as a potential therapeutic alternative for mucopolysaccharidosis IVA.

Characterization of recombinant human lysosomal beta-hexosaminidases produced in the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris

Universitas Scientiarum, 2016
β-hexosaminidases (Hex) are dimeric enzymes involved in the lysosomal degradation of glycolipids and glycans. They are formed by α- and/or β-subunits encoded byHEXA and HEXB genes, respectively.

Dietary Treatment from Birth to Pregnancy in a Woman with Methylmalonic Aciduria

Medicina, 2021
Methylmalonic aciduria is treated with a natural protein-restricted diet with adequate energy intake to sustain metabolic balance. Natural protein is a source of methylmalonic acid precursors, and intake is individually modified according to the severity

The Continuous Challenge of Diagnosing patients with Fabry disease in Argentina : Genotype, Experiences, Anecdotes, and New Learnings [PDF]

, 2015
The lysosomal storage disorder Fabry disease (FD) is caused by pathogenic mutations in the α-galactosidase A gene, localized in X chromosome. Deficient enzymatic activity of the product of this gene, the lysosomal hydrolase α-galactosidase A, leads to ...

Increasing the spectrum of white matter diseases with tigroid pattern on MRI: glutaric aciduria type 1 – case report

BMC Pediatrics, 2021
Background Most white matter diseases present on magnetic resonance imaging as focal or diffuse T2-hyperintensities. However, in a few of them, radially oriented stripes of low (relatively normal) signal intensity are observed within diffusely affected ...

“Double Hit” Homozygous Mutations for Two Different Rare Inborn Errors of Metabolism: A Burden for Countries with High Prevalences of Consangineous Marriages

Journal of Pediatric Research, 2018
Inborn errors of metabolism comprise a broad range of genetic diseases of which most are inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. Although being rare, there is a significant increase in their rate especially in countries where consanguineous marriages

Hyperphenylalaninemias genotyping: Results of over 60 years of history in Lombardy, Italy

Endocrinology, Diabetes & Metabolism, 2023
Background Hyperphenylalaninemias (HPA) are due to several gene mutations, of which the PAH gene is the most frequently involved. Prevalence and incidence of disease vary between populations, with genotype/phenotype correlations not always capable to ...

Newborn screening for carnitine transporter defect in Bavaria and the long-term follow-up of the identified newborns and mothers: Assessing the benefit and possible harm based on 19 ½ years of experience

Molecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports, 2021
Carnitine transporter defect (CTD) is a potentially life-threatening disorder causing acute metabolic decompensation, cardiac arrhythmia, and cardiac and skeletal myopathies. CTD is included in many newborn screening (NBS) programs.
