Isolated sulfite oxidase deficiency: a founder mutation.

Abstract excerpt

Isolated sulfite oxidase deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive inborn error of sulfur metabolism. Clinical features generally include devastating neurologic dysfunction, ectopia lentis, and increased urinary excretion of sulfite, thiosulfate, and S-sulfocysteine. Missed diagnosis is not unusual because of variability in the sensitivity of the urinary sulfite and thiosulfate screening test. We present clinical,...
