Abstract excerpt

A case-control design determined whether konzo, an upper motoneuron disease linked to food (cassava) toxicity was associated with protein carbamoylation and genetic variations. Exon sequences of thiosulfate sulfurtransferase (TST) or mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (MPST), plasma cyanide detoxification rates, and 2D-LC-MS/MS albumin carbamoylation were assessed in 40 children [21 konzo-affected and 19...
