Abstract excerpt
In homocystinuria due to cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS) deficiency, vitamin B6 response has been linked to distinct mutations and ruled out for others. The splice site mutation c.1224-2A>C leading to the deletion of exon 12 is predominantly found in patients from Central Europe, where it has been found on in average 14% of mutant alleles. In this study we analyzed the clinical picture in 17 CBS deficient...
