Two exon-skipping mutations as the molecular basis of succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase deficiency (4-hydroxybutyric aciduria).
Succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase (SSADH) deficiency, a rare metabolic disorder of 4-aminobutyric acid degradation, has been identified in approximately 150 patients. Affected individuals accumulate large quantities of 4-hydroxybutyric acid, a compound with a wide range of neuropharmacological activities, in physiological fluids. As a first step in beginning an investigation of the molecular ...

Succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase (SSADH) deficiency or 4-Hydroxybutyric Aciduria is an autosomal recessive inherited disorder of amma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) degradation. It is characterized by developmental delay, infantile-onset hypotonia, cognitive impairment language deficit, and ataxia. Epilepsy, aggression, Hyperkinetic behavior, hallucinations, and sleep disturbances have been descri...
