Abstract excerpt
Succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase (SSADH) deficiency (SSADHD; OMIM 271980) is a rare disorder featuring accumulation of neuroactive 4-aminobutyric acid (GABA; γ-aminobutyric acid, derived from glutamic acid) and 4-hydroxybutyric acid (γ-hydroxybutyric acid; GHB, a short-chain fatty acid analogue of GABA). Elevated GABA is predicted to disrupt the GABA shunt linking GABA transamination to the Krebs cycle and...
