ABSTRACT Combined malonic and methylmalonic aciduria (CMAMMA) is an inborn error of metabolism caused by a deficiency in mitochondrial malonyl‐CoA synthetase, the enzyme responsible for activating malonic acid (MA) to malonyl‐CoA, a precursor of lipoic acid.

Expansion of the Phenotype of Lymphatic Anomalies Caused by Somatic Activating BRAF Variant
ABSTRACT Background The somatic activating variant in BRAF (p.V600E) was recently described as a novel cause of macrocystic head and neck lymphatic malformations in three individuals. Other recent studies profiling the genetic causes of more complex lymphatic anomalies identified this same pathogenic BRAF variant.

Abstract Background In neuroblastoma (NB), urinary catecholamine excretion and 123ImIBG avidity—depending on tumor enzymatic activity and norepinephrine transporter expression, respectively—are diagnostic standards. The prognostic impact of atypical NB, without urinary catecholamine excretion and/or 123ImIBG avidity, remains to be determined. We sought

Molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying gyrate atrophy: Why is the retina primarily affected?
Abstract Gyrate atrophy of the choroid and retina (GACR; OMIM #258870) is a rare early‐onset autosomal recessive disorder, caused by bi‐allelic pathogenic variants in the gene coding for ornithine aminotransferase (OAT) resulting in hyperornithinaemia.
