Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Pyridoxal-5'-phosphate oxidase (PNPO) deficiency presents as a severe neonatal encephalopathy responsive to pyridoxal-5'-phosphate (PLP) or pyridoxine. Recent studies widened the phenotype of this condition and detected genetic variants on PNPO gene whose pathogenic role and clinical expression remain to be established. OBJECTIVE: This paper aims to characterize the functional effects of the c.347G>A...
