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

The urea cycle plays key roles to prevent the accumulation of toxic nitrogenous compound and synthesize arginine de novo. Ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) deficiency is the most common inborn error of urea cycle, which is inherited in an X-linked manner. This study was undertaken to characterize mol
