Journal ArticleDOI
Purine Nucleoside Phosphorylase Deficiency Associated with Selective Cellular Immunodeficiency
J. W. Stoop,Ben J.M. Zegers,G. F. M. Hendrickx,L H van Heukelom,G. E. J. Staal,P.K. De Bree,Sybe K. Wadman,Ballieux Re +7 more
TL;DR: Intoxication of the T lymphocytes after birth by metabolic products may explain the progressive cellular immunodeficiency in a 15-month-old girl with spastic tetraparesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Partial hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyl transferase deficiency with full expression of the Lesch-Nyhan syndrome
Gert Rijksen,G. E. J. Staal,M. J. M. van der Vlist,Frits A. Beemer,J. Troost,W. Gutensohn,J. P. R. M. van Laarhoven,C. H. M. M. de Bruyn +7 more
TL;DR: The results fit the following hypothesis: as a consequence of a structural mutation affecting the PRPP-site of the enzyme and a decreased heat stability, the activity of the mutant enzyme under in vivo conditions is virtually zero.
Journal ArticleDOI
An abnormal form of purine nucleoside phosphorylase in a family with a child with severe defective T-cell-and normal B-cell immunity.
TL;DR: The nucleoside phosphorylases of the father, mother and brother of the patient were characterized by an increased KM for the substrate inosine, normal pH optimum and a decreased heat stability, and the electrophoretic patterns of NP seem to be the same as for normal NP.
Journal ArticleDOI
Separation and characterization of hexokinase I subtypes from human erythrocytes.
Gert Rijksen,G Jansen,Robert J. Kraaijenhagen,M J Van der Vlist,Annie M.C. Vlug,G. E. J. Staal +5 more
TL;DR: Hexokinase (ATP: D-hexose 6-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1) type 1 from human erythrocytes exists in four electrophoretical distinct forms, termed Ia, Ib, Ic and Id in order of their increasing anodal electrophory mobility at pH 8.8.1.
Book ChapterDOI
L-α-Alanine Inhibition of Pyruvate Kinase from Tumours of the Human Central Nervous System
C. W. M. van Veelen,H. Verbiest,Klaus-Joachim Zülch,B. van Ketel,M. J. M. van der Vlist,Annie M.C. Vlug,Gert Rijksen,G. E. J. Staal +7 more
TL;DR: There is ever-increasing literature pointing out that gene expression in tumour cells is different from that in normal cells from which or in which the tumour originates.
