We have recently identified SLC25A13 on chromosome 7q21.3 as the gene responsible for adultonset type II citrullinemia (CTLN2) and found seven mutations in the SLC25A13 gene of CTLN2 patients. Most recently, the SLC25A13 mutations have been detected in neonatal/infantile patients with a type of neon
