A sister and brother with severe porphobilinogen (PBG) deaminase deficiency are described. Each of their parents carries a different mutation for acute intermittent porphyria and the children are homozygous for the PBG-deaminase deficiency that causes this disorder. Both are compound heterozygotes f
Direct cDNA sequencing was performed on asymmetrically amplified transcripts from the porphobilinogen deaminase (PBG-D) gene of thirteen unrelated individuals with acute intermittent porphyria. Four different mutations and a polymorphic site were detected in exon 12 of the gene, four being the resul
