    Porphobilinogen deaminase gene in African and Afro-Caribbean ethnic groups: mutations causing acute intermittent porphyria and specific intragenic polymorphisms

    Acute intermittent porphyria (AIP), the most common acute hepatic porphyria, is a low-penetrant autosomal dominant disorder caused by mutations in the porphobilinogen deaminase (PBGD) or hydroxymethylbilane synt...

    Porphyrias

    The porphyrias are a group of inherited disorders of heme biosynthesis [1, 2]. Each enzyme defect (Table 1) produces a specific pattern of overproduction of intermediates of the pathway, associated with charac...

    Identification of the mutations in the parents of a patient with a putative compound heterozygosity for acute intermittent porphyria

    The molecular abnormalities responsible for acute intermittent porphyria were investigated in both parents of a girl who was retrospectively diagnosed as having a homozygous form of the disease. The mutations ...

    A retrospective study of a patient with homozygous form of acute intermittent porphyria

    In 1964 a child with an exceptional form of porphyria was described; she excreted persistently excessive amounts of delta-aminolaevulinic acid, porphobilinogen and uroporphyrin in her urine from early childhoo...

    Coexistent hereditary coproporphyria and congenital erythropoietic porphyria (Günther disease)

    We present data on one patient with an inheritance pattern for two porphyrias. From her mother she inherited the trait of hereditary coproporphyria; from both parents she inherited the trait of congenital eryt...

    Assignment of the gene for uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase to human chromosome 1 by somatic cell hybridization and specific enzyme immunoassay

    A specific enzyme immunoassay of uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase was developed and applied to the detection of the human enzyme in man-rodent somatic cell hybrids. This method allowed to assign the gene for uro...
