Abstract excerpt
The family members of 2 formers of 2,8-dihydroxyadenine stones were examined for history, adenine phosphoribosyltransferase (APRT) activity, genotype, urinary sediment, and urinary constituents. The patients' father showed a genotype of APRT*1/APRT*Q0, and their mother showed APRT*1/APRT*J. Patients 1 and 2 were compound heterozygotes for adenine phosphoribosyltransferase deficiency (APRT*J/APRT*Q0), and APRT...
