Comprehensive Genotypic, Phenotypic, and Biochemical Characterization of GOT2 Deficiency: A Progressive Neurodevelopmental Disorder with Epilepsy and Abnormal Movements

Genet Med. 2025 Sep 22:101587. doi: 10.1016/j.gim.2025.101587. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT PURPOSE: Glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT), also known as aspartate aminotransferase, catalyzes the reversible transamination of oxaloacetate and glutamate to aspartate and α-ketoglutarate. Two isoforms, cytosolic (GOT1) and mitochondrial (GOT2), are integral to the malate-aspartate shuttle (MAS), a key regulator of intracellular redox homeostasis. Recently, […]

Follow-up and outcome of patients with primary BH4 deficiencies

Front Neurol. 2026 Jul 16;17:1793300. doi: 10.3389/fneur.2026.1793300. eCollection 2026. ABSTRACT BH4 deficiencies may occur with or without hyperphenylalaninemia (HPA). If identified early through neonatal screening for PKU, the clinical follow-up aims to prevent the onset of typical disease symptoms. In contrast, for the conditions not associated with HPA, diagnosis usually occurs once symptoms manifest, and […]
