Abstract:
:Gyrate atrophy of the choroid and retina that is due to ornithine ketoacid transaminase (OKT) deficiency is an autosomal recessive disorder. Fibroblasts from heterozygotes for the pyridoxine-responsive variant as well as those for the pyridoxine-nonresponsive variant contain intermediate levels of OKT activity. These two variants can be distinguished by the in vitro responsiveness of OKT activity to pyridoxal phosphate (PLP) stimulation. The ratios of OKT activity at 0.04 mM PLP compared with activity at 0 mM PLP were, respectively, lowest for controls (1.18 +/- 0.18; N = 12), intermediate for pyridoxine-nonresponsive heterozygotes (1.43 +/- 0.26; N = 5), and highest for pyridoxine-responsive heterozygotes (2.20 +/- 0.14; N = 3).
