Abstract excerpt
We have investigated the molecular lesions of T-protein deficiency causing typical or atypical nonketotic hyperglycinemia (NKH) in two unrelated pedigrees. A patient with typical NKH was identified as being homozygous for a missense mutation in the T-protein gene, a G-to-A transition leading to a Gly-to-Asp substitution at amino acid 269 (G269D). Sibling patients of a second family with atypical NKH had two...
