Late-onset hyperammonemia was observed in a male patient with partial quantitative deficiency of ornithine carbamoyltransferase (OCT). His liver contained 10% of the normal level of OCT, but with normal kinetics. This reduced enzyme activity alone, however, could not explain the hyperammonemia. Ther

Ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) deficiency, a X-linked disorder, is the most frequent inborn error of the urea cycle. Point mutations and small deletions/insertions in the OTC gene are responsible for the majority of the cases and have a "private"character with little recurrence. We report on eleve
