Novel MTO1 mutations associated with an intrafamilial phenotypic variability

Egyptian Journal of Medical Human Genetics, 2023
Background Mitochondrial diseases are a group of rare inborn metabolic disorders with multi-systemic manifestations. MTO1 gene mutations are associated with MTO1 (Mitochondrial tRNA Translation Optimization 1) protein deficiency, a mitochondrial disorder,

Identification of the iduronate-2-sulfatase proteome in wild-type mouse brain

Heliyon, 2019
Iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS) is a lysosomal enzyme involved in the metabolism of the glycosaminoglycans heparan (HS) and dermatan (DS) sulfate. Mutations on IDS gene produce mucopolysaccharidosis II (MPS II), characterized by the lysosomal accumulation of

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.

Fatal pitfalls in newborn screening for mitochondrial trifunctional protein (MTP)/long-chain 3-Hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase (LCHAD) deficiency

Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2018
Background Mitochondrial trifunctional protein (MTP) and long-chain 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase (LCHAD) deficiency are long-chain fatty acid oxidation disorders with particularly high morbidity and mortality.

Phenylalanine and Tyrosine Metabolism Analysis in Heterozygotes for Phenylketonuria and in Healthy Individuals

Journal of Inborn Errors of Metabolism and Screening, 2015
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is an inherited metabolic disorder derived from a deficiency in the enzyme phenylalanine hydroxylase, which converts the amino acid phenylalanine (Phe) into tyrosine (Tyr).

Delivery and assessment of a CRISPR/nCas9-based genome editing system on in vitro models of mucopolysaccharidoses IVA assisted by magnetite-based nanoparticles

Scientific Reports, 2022
Mucopolysaccharidosis IV A (MPS IVA) is a lysosomal disorder caused by mutations in the GALNS gene. Consequently, the glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) keratan sulfate and chondroitin 6-sulfate accumulate in the lysosomal lumen.

Foetal Haemoglobin as a Marker of Bone Marrow Suppression Secondary to Anti-Kell Alloimmunisation

International Journal of Neonatal Screening, 2023
Anti-Kell alloimmunisation is a potentially severe minor blood group type incompatibility, not only as a cause of haemolytic disease of the foetus and newborn, but also due to the destruction of red blood cells (RBC) and mature form in the bone marrow ...

Carnitine Inborn Errors of Metabolism [PDF]

Molecules, 2019
Carnitine plays essential roles in intermediary metabolism. In non-vegetarians, most of carnitine sources (~75%) are obtained from diet whereas endogenous synthesis accounts for around 25%. Renal carnitine reabsorption along with dietary intake and endogenous production maintain carnitine homeostasis.
