Abstract excerpt
Carbamoyl-phosphate synthetase I (CPS1) deficiency (CPS1D), a recessively inherited urea cycle error due to CPS1 gene mutations, causes life-threatening hyperammonemia. The disease-causing potential of missense mutations in CPS1 deficiency can be ascertained with the recombinant CPS1 expression and purification system reported here, which uses baculovirus and insect cells. We study with this system the effects of...
