Abstract excerpt

Lesch-Nyhan disease (LND) is a rare X-linked inherited neurogenetic disorder of purine metabolism in which the enzyme, hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HGprt) is defective. Despite having been characterized over 50 years ago, it remains unclear precisely how deficits in HGprt enzyme activity can lead to the neurological syndrome, especially the self-injury of LND. Several studies have proposed...
