Journal ArticleDOI

beta-Ureidopropionase deficiency: an inborn error of pyrimidine degradation associated with neurological abnormalities.

TL;DR: The results demonstrate that the N-carbamyl-beta-amino aciduria in these patients is due to a deficiency of beta-ureidopropionase, which is caused by mutations in the UPB1 gene, which might not be as rare as is generally considered.
Journal ArticleDOI

Late-onset MNGIE due to partial loss of thymidine phosphorylase activity

TL;DR: This report demonstrates a direct relationship between the biochemical defects and clinical phenotypes in MNGIE and supports the notion that reduction of dThd and dUrd accumulation or TP replacement could be useful therapy for MngIE.
Journal ArticleDOI

Defects in Pyrimidine Degradation Identified by HPLC-Electrospray Tandem Mass Spectrometry of Urine Specimens or Urine-soaked Filter Paper Strips

TL;DR: HPLC with electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry allows rapid testing for disorders of the pyrimidine degradation pathway, and filter-paper samples allow easy collection, transport, and storage of urine samples.
Journal ArticleDOI

beta-Ureidopropionase deficiency: a novel inborn error of metabolism discovered using NMR spectroscopy on urine.

TL;DR: NMR investigations that led to the discovery of a new inborn error of metabolism, β‐ureidopropionase (UP) deficiency, are reported and the 1D 1H‐NMR spectrum can be used to diagnose patients suffering from other inborn errors of metabolism in the pyrimidine degradation pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI

Substrate preference of stress-activated phospholipase D in Chlamydomonas and its contribution to PA formation.

TL;DR: In this paper, G-protein activation (1 µm mastoparan), hyperosmotic stress (150mm NaCl) and membrane depolarization (50mm KCl) were used to stimulate PLD, as monitored by the accumulation in 5min of its unique transphosphatidylation product (PBut), identifying this lipid as PLD's favoured substrate.
