The dual genetic control of ornithine transcarbamylase synthesis in Escherichia coli K12 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1967
Mutations at 2 distant genes influence ornithine transcarbamylase synthesis in Escherichia coli K12. The wild type alleles of either of them restores to an OTC-less strain the ability to synthesize this enzyme under feedback control by ...

Osmotic Demyelination Syndrome as a Consequence of Treating Hyperammonemia in a Patient With Ornithine Transcarbamylase Deficiency

open access: yes, 2009
A 7-year-old female patient with a new diagnosis of ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency was treated for hyperammonemia with a standard protocol. Several days later, she developed ataxia, dysmetria, and dysarthria.

Clinical and genetic analysis of five Chinese patients with urea cycle disorders

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2020
Background The urea cycle plays a key role in preventing the accumulation of toxic nitrogenous waste products, including two essential enzymes: ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) and argininosuccinate lyase (ASL).

Zinc supplementation reduces blood ammonia and increases liver ornithine transcarbamylase activity in experimental cirrhosis

open access: yes, 1992
Zinc deficiency is common in cirrhosis and may be involved in the alteration of ammonia metabolism. Rats with carbon tetrachloride-induced cirrhosis have high plasma ammonia and low serum and tissue zinc levels.

Prenatal diagnosis of ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency: optimizing pregnancy outcome in a woman with previous affected babies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Ornithine Transcarbamylase (OTC) deficiency is an inherited X-linked disorder which predominantly affects males. Females are usually carriers and may rarely be symptomatic. Affected individuals may present with severe life threatening disease immediately

Immunological Characterization of Plant Ornithine Transcarbamylases [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 1990
Pea (Pisum sativum L.) ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) antisera were used to investigate the immunological relatedness of several plant and animal OTC enzymes. The antisera immunoprecipitated OTC activity in all monocot and dicot species tested, and sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis of immunoprecipitated protein ...

Valproate-induced hyperammonemia - uncovering an underlying inherited metabolic disorder: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2018
Background Sodium valproate is a commonly used anticonvulsant. It is widely recognized that valproate can cause hyperammonemia, particularly in people with underlying liver disease.

Acrodermatitis Dysmetabolica as a Cutaneous Manifestation of Isoleucine Deficiency in Maple Syrup Urine Disease: A Systematic Review of Reported Cases

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aim Maple Syrup Urine Disease (MSUD) is a metabolic disorder affecting branched‐chain amino acid metabolism. While neurological symptoms are well‐characterized, cutaneous manifestations such as acrodermatitis dysmetabolica (AD) caused by isoleucine deficiency remain underrecognized.

Mutation of ornithine transcarbamylase (H136R) in a girl with severe intermittent orotic aciduria but normal enzyme activity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency shows X-linked inheritance with partial dominant expression in carrier females. We studied a girl with intermittent severe orotic aciduria and mild hyperammonaemia despite apparently normal enzyme activity in the ...
