Identification and characterization of temperature-sensitive mild mutations in three Japanese patients with nonsevere forms of very-long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency.

Abstract excerpt

Very-long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (VLCAD) deficiency is clinically classified into severe, intermediate, and myopathic forms. We identified mutations in three unrelated Japanese patients with VLCAD deficiency: two with the myopathic form and one with the intermediate form, all compound heterozygotes of K264E/M437V, A416T/1798delA, and P89S/IVS16-3delAA, respectively. We characterized four missense mutations,...
