Subependymal cysts in normal neonates.
We undertook a prospective ultrasound study of subependymal cyst formation in normal neonates. Twenty five of 500 normal Chinese neonates (5%) were found to have subependymal cysts. Most of these (18 of 25) showed no obvious perinatal insult. This study suggests a rather high incidence of concealed intrauterine subependymal haemorrhage in normal term neonates.
متن کاملHolocarboxylase Synthetase-dependent Biotinylation of Histone H4
Holocarboxylase synthetase (HCS) catalyzes the binding of biotin to lysine (K) residues in histones H3 and H4. Histone biotinylation marks play important roles in the repression of genes and retrotransposons. Preliminary studies suggest that K16 in histone H4 is a target for biotinylation by HCS. Here we tested the hypothesis that H4K16bio is a real histone mark in human chromatin, and that H4K...
متن کاملNeonatal-onset carbamoyl phosphate synthetase I deficiency
RATIONALE The carbamoyl phosphate synthetase I deficiency (CPS1D) was rare and hard to diagnose due to its atypical symptoms. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was typically unavailable in other reports because most patients died before diagnosis was confirmed. Furthermore, it was found a new mutation that had not been described previously. PATIENT CONCERNS This is a case of neonatal-ons...
متن کاملReduced histone biotinylation in multiple carboxylase deficiency patients: a nuclear role for holocarboxylase synthetase.
The attachment of biotin to apocarboxylases is catalyzed by holocarboxylase synthetase (HCS). An inherited deficiency of HCS results in the disorder 'multiple carboxylase deficiency', which is characterized by reduced activity of all biotin-dependent carboxylases. Here we show that the majority of HCS localizes to the nucleus rather than the cytoplasm based on immunofluorescence studies with an...
متن کاملReduced half-life of holocarboxylase synthetase from patients with severe multiple carboxylase deficiency.
Multiple carboxylase deficiency is a clinical condition caused by defects in the enzymes involved in biotin metabolism, holocarboxylase synthetase (HLCS) or biotinidase. HLCS deficiency is a potentially fatal condition if left untreated, although the majority of patients respond to oral supplementation of 10-20 mg/day of biotin. Patients who display incomplete responsiveness to this therapy hav...
