Type I recessive congenital methaemoglobinaemia (RCM), caused by the reduced form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH)-cytochrome b(5) reductase (cytb(5)r) deficiency, manifests clinically as cyanosis without neurological dysfunction. Two mutations, E255- and G291D, have been identified in the NADH-binding lobe of cytb(5)r in previously reported patients, and we have detected a further novel mutation,...
