A <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i> model of adenylosuccinate lyase deficiency reveals neuromuscular and reproductive phenotypes of distinct etiology
2017-08-29
Abstract excerpt
Inborn errors of purine metabolism are rare syndromes with an array of complex phenotypes in humans. One such disorder, adenylosuccinate lyase deficiency (ASLD), is caused by a decrease in the activity of the bi-functional purine biosynthetic enzyme, adenylosuccinate lyase (ADSL). Mutations in human ADSL cause epilepsy, muscle ataxia, and autistic-like symptoms. Although the genetic basis of ASLD syndrome is known...
