" /> Lysinuric protein intolerance - CISMeF





Preferred Label : Lysinuric protein intolerance;

Symbol : LPI;

CISMeF acronym : LPI;

Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;

Alternative titles and symbols : Dibasic amino aciduria II;

Description : Lysinuric protein intolerance is caused by defective cationic amino acid (CAA) transport at the basolateral membrane of epithelial cells in kidney and intestine. Metabolic derangement is characterized by increased renal excretion of CAA, reduced CAA absorption from intestine, and orotic aciduria (Borsani et al., 1999).;

Inheritance : Autosomal recessive;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the solute carrier family 7 (cationic amino acid transporter, y system), member 7 gene (SLC7A7, 603593.0001);

Laboratory abnormalities : Urinary excretion of cationic amino acids (lysine, arginine, ornithine); Decreased blood levels of cationic amino acids; Hyperammonemia after protein intake; Orotic aciduria; Increased serum lactate hydrogenase; Increased serum ferritin;

Prefixed ID : #222700;
