A proposed nosology of inborn errors of metabolism
We propose a nosology for inborn errors of metabolism that builds on their recent redefinition. We established a strict definition of criteria to develop a self-consistent schema for inclusion of a disorder into the nosology.

Management of methylmalonic acidemia (MMA) with N‐carbamylglutamate: A case report from Italy
We present the case report of a patient with frequently decompensated methylmalonic acidemia (MMA) who was successfully treated with carglumic acid (Carbaglu®, CA). The efficacy and safety of long‐term CA in the management of MMA have been confirmed in a prospective, randomized controlled trial and our report provides additional real‐world evidence on ...

Using reported pathogenic variants to identify therapeutic opportunities for genetic diseases
The increase in size of publicly available variant annotation and Mendelian disease databases have allowed for novel approaches to identify the likely direction of effect of genetic mutations. Specifically, we found a simple ratio of missense mutations is capable of identifying genes likely to cause disease through a gain‐of‐function mechanism ...

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

The protein cost of metabolic fluxes: prediction from enzymatic rate laws and cost minimization [PDF]
Bacterial growth depends crucially on metabolic fluxes, which are limited by the cell's capacity to maintain metabolic enzymes. The necessary enzyme amount per unit flux is a major determinant of metabolic strategies both in evolution and bioengineering.

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.

Inborn Errors of Energy Metabolism Associated with Myopathies [PDF]
Inherited neuromuscular disorders affect approximately one in 3,500 children. Structural muscular defects are most common; however functional impairment of skeletal and cardiac muscle in both children and adults may be caused by inborn errors of energy ...
