CISMeF acronym : OAWA;

Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;

Alternative titles and symbols : Orotic aciduria I; Orotate phosphoribosyltransferase and orotidylic decarboxylase deficiency; Oprt and odc deficiency; Orotidylic pyrophosphorylase and orotidylic decarboxylase deficiency; Uridine monophosphate synthase deficiency; Ump synthase deficiency; Umps deficiency;

Description : Orotic aciduria is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by megaloblastic anemia and orotic acid crystalluria that is frequently associated with some degree of physical and mental retardation. These features respond to appropriate pyrimidine replacement therapy, and most cases appear to have a good prognosis. A minority of cases have additional features, particularly congenital malformations and immune deficiencies, which may adversely affect this prognosis (summary by Webster et al., 2001). Bailey (2009) reported that to that time, 2 cases of orotic aciduria without megaloblastic anemia (OAWA) had been reported.;

Inheritance : Autosomal recessive;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the uridine monophosphate synthetase gene (UMPS, 613891.0001);

Laboratory abnormalities : Orotic aciduria; Orotic acid crystalluria; Hematuria;

Prefixed ID : #258900;
