Abstract excerpt
Bi-allelic variants in GLUL, encoding glutamine synthetase and responsible for the conversion of glutamate to glutamine, are associated with a severe recessive disease due to glutamine deficiency. A dominant disease mechanism was recently reported in nine females, all with a de novo single-nucleotide variant within the start codon or the 5' UTR of GLUL that truncates 17 amino acids of the protein product,...
