Isovaleric AciduriaHomo sapiens
Isovaleric acidemia (IVA) is caused by mutation in the isovaleryl CoA dehydrogenase gene. Isovaleryl CoA dehydrogenase is part of the acyl-CoA dehydrogenase family and is involved in the catabolism of leucine. A defect in this enzyme causes accumulation of ammonia, ketone bodies, Isovaleryl/2-Methylbutyrylcarnitine (C5) in blood; carnitine in plasma; creatinine, and glucose in serum; 3-Hydroxybutyric acid, 3-Hydroxyisovaleric acid, 4-Hydroxyvaleric acid, acetyltryptophan, glycine, acylcarnitin, isovalerylasparagine, isovalerylglycine, isovaleryllysine, isovalerylhistidine and isovaleryltryptophan in urine. Symptoms include encephalopathy, ketosis, metabolic acidosis, pancreatitis, sweaty feet odor, and thrombocytopenia.

Biotinidase DeficiencyHomo sapiens
Biotinidase deficiency (Multiple carboxylase deficiency) is an autosomal recessive disease caused by a mutation in the BTD gene which codes for biotinidase. A deficiency in this enzyme results in accumulation of ammonia and ketone bodies in blood; 3-hydroxyisovaleric acid in plasma, spinal fluid, and urine; hydroxypropionic acid, 2-hydroxybutyric acid, 3-Hydroxybutyric acid, and citric acid in spinal fluid; and 3-methylcrotonylglycine, hydroxypropionic acid, and L and D-lactic acid in urine. Symptoms, which can present from birth into adulthood include hypotonia, ketosis, hyperammonemia, motor retardation, coma, and seborrhoic skin rash. Treatment includes biotin.

Canavan DiseaseHomo sapiens
Canavan Disease (Canavan-Van Bogaert-Bertrand Disease; Aminoacylase 2 Deficiency; Spongy Degeneration of the Central Nervous System; Aspartoacylase Deficiency; ASP Deficiency; ACY2 Deficiency; ASPA) is a rare autosomal recessive disease caused by a defect in the ASPA gene which codes for aspartoacylase. A deficiency in this enzyme results in accumulation of N-Acetyl-L-aspartic acid in plasma, spinal fluid, and urine. Symptoms, which present at birth, include myclonus, irritability, hypotonia, motor retardation, and poor head control. The neurological complications are due to demyelination of neurons and leukodystrophy. Premature death often results, though lithium citrate can be used as a treatment.

HypoacetylaspartiaHomo sapiens
Hypoacetylaspartia, also known as N-acetylaspartate (NAA) deficiency is an extremely rare autosomal recessive inborn error of metabolism (IEM) caused by a mutation in the NAT8L gene. This gene encodes the N-acetylaspartate synthase protein, which catalyzes the formation of N-acetyl-L-aspartate from L-aspartate and acetyl-CoA, with CoA and a hydrogen ion being byproducts. This reaction occurs as part of the aspartate metabolism pathway. This disorder is characterized by a deficiency of NAA in the brain, as shown by magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS). Symptoms of the disorder include microcephaly, developmental delays, ataxia and seizures, which have been shown to worsen the ataxia. So, only one patient has been diagnosed with Hypoacetylaspartia.

Smith-Lemli-Opitz Syndrome (SLOS)Homo sapiens
The autosomal recessive disorder Smith-Lemli-Opitz Syndrome (SLOS; SLO Syndrome; RSH; Rutledge Lethal Multiple Congenital Anomaly, Syndrome; Polydactyly, Sex Reversal, Renal Hypoplasia, and Unilobar Lung; Lethal Acrodysgenital Syndrome) is characterized by disordered steroid biosynthesis. It results from a mutation in the DHCR7 gene coding for the enzyme sterol delta-7-reducatase. This enzyme catalyzes the production of cholesterol by reducing the C7-C8 double bond of 7-dehydrocholesterol (7-DHC). SLOS causes the accumulation of 7-dehydrocholesterol and 8-dehydrocholesterol, and a decrease of cholesterol in plasma; and 3-methylglutaconic acid in urine. All patients with SLOS have mental retardation, and symptoms include ambiguous genitalia, hypotonia, microcephaly, syndactyly, limb abnormalities and deformities and polydactyly.

CHILD SyndromeHomo sapiens
CHILD Syndrome, (Congenital Hemidysplasia with Icthyosiform Erythroderma and Limb Defects; Ichthyosiform Eruthroderma, Unilateral, with Epsilateral Malformations, Especially Absence Deformity of Limbs) is caused by a mutation in the gene encoding NADH steroid dehydrogenase-like protein (NSDHL). A defect in sterol-4 alpha-carboxylate 3-dehydrogenase, which normally catalyzes the reaction 3-beta-hydroxy-4-beta-methyl-5-alpha-cholest-7-ene-4-alpha-carboxylate + NAD+ = 4-alpha-methyl-5-alpha-cholest-7-en-3-one + CO2 + NADH, causes accumulation of 8(9)cholestenol and 8-dehydrocholesterol in plasma. Symptoms of CHILD syndrome include hearing defects, hemidysplasia, unilateral hypomelia, ichthyosiform nevi, limb abnormalities, lung hypoplasia, and punctate calcifications.

DesmosterolosisHomo sapiens
Desmosterolosis is caused by a mutation in the DHCR24 gene, which codes for the enzyme 24-dehydrocholesterol reductase, which catalyzes the reduction of the delta-24 double bond of sterol intermediates. A defect in 24-dehydrocholesterol reductase causes accumulation of desmosterol in plasma. Symptoms include cleft palate, clubfoot, dysmorphism, mental and motor retardation, and speech development.

Chondrodysplasia Punctata II, X-Linked Dominant (CDPX2)Homo sapiens
Chondrodysplasia Punctata 2, X Linked Dominant (CDPX2; CPDXD; CPXD; Conradi-Hunermann Syndrome; Happle Syndrome; Conradi-Hunermann-Happle Syndrome is caused by a mutation in the gene encoding delta(8)-delta(7) sterol isomerase emopamil-binding protein (EBP). EBP contains the code for the enzyme 3-beta-hydroxysteroid-Delta(8),Delta(7)-isomerase, which normally catalyzes the conversion of Delta(8)-sterols to their corresponding Delta(7)-isomers. A defect in this enzyme causes accumulation of 8-dehydrocholesterol and 8(9)cholestenol in the plasma. Symptoms include alopecia, dysmorphism, hyperkeratosis, ichthyosis, kyphoscoliosis, limb abnormalities and deformities, and mental retardation.

Lysosomal Acid Lipase Deficiency (Wolman Disease)Homo sapiens
Lysosomal Acid Lipase Deficiency, also known as Wolman disease, is predictably enough the result of a specific defect in lysosomal acid lipase. The defect results from a mutation on the 10th chromosome to the LIPA gene. Of interest is that the nature of the particular defect to the LIPA gene can result in two major, and distinct disorders. The first and more severe is the infantile-onset Wolman disease, whereas the other less severe disorder is late-onset cholesteryl ester storage diseas, also known as CESD. These two disorders are the product of mutations to different regions of the LIPA gene. Wolman disease is characterized by increased transaminases in serum, and increased cholesteryl esters and triglycerides in various tissues. Symptoms include anemia, diarrhea, failure to thrive, enlarged liver, malabsorption, steatorrhea and abdominal pain.

Cystathionine beta-Synthase DeficiencyHomo sapiens
Cystathionine Beta-Synthase Deficiency (CBS Deficiency; Homocystinuria) is an autosomal recessive disease caused by a mutation in the CBS gene which codes for cystathionine beta-synthase. A deficiency in this enzyme results in accumulation of L-cystathionine, homocysteine, and L-homocystine in plasma and urine; and L-methionine and ornithine in plasma. Symptoms include osteoporosis, myopia, fatty-liver, mental retardation, and early death. Treatment includes folic acid, vitamin B6, vitamin B12, and a methionine-restricted diet.
