Abstract excerpt
Glutaric acidemia type I (GAI) (McKusick 231670) is an autosomal recessive disease affecting the catabolism of the amino acids lysine, hydroxylysine and tryptophan, caused by a defect in the gene encoding glutaryl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase (GCDH) and associated with severe neurological symptoms. Several pathogenic mutations in GCDH have been reported to cause GAI. One mutation, R402W, is more common than the...
