Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the genetic characterization of 3-hydroxyisovalerylcarnitine (C5-OH) metabolic abnormality in neonates. METHODS: Fifty two newborns with increased C5-OH, C5-OH/C3 and C5-OH/C8 detected by tandem mass spectrometry during neonatal screening were enrolled in the study. Genomic DNA was extracted from the whole blood samples of 52 cases and their parents. Seventy-nine genes associated with...
