Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) is the initial, rate-limiting enzyme in the catabolism of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). A pharmacogenetic syndrome has been described in which DPD-deficient patients are at risk for toxicity following administration of 5-FU. To date, there are at least 21 previously de
The entire coding sequence of a Japanese class 1 variant (G6PD Tokyo) was amplified by the polymerase chain reaction from genomic DNA. Nucleotide analysis by a direct sequencing technique revealed a unique nucleotide substitution (1246 G to A) in exon 10, which predicts a Glu to Lys substitution at
Very long chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (VLCAD) deficiency is a life-threatening disorder of mitochondrial fatty acid beta-oxidation. We identified four novel mutations in three unrelated patients. All patients had the severe childhood form of VLCAD deficiency with early onset and high mortality. Imm
