Preferred Label : Glutathione synthetase deficiency;

Symbol : GSSD;

CISMeF acronym : GSSD;

Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;

Alternative titles and symbols : Pyroglutamic aciduria; 5-OXOPROLINURIA;

Description : Glutathione synthetase deficiency, or 5-oxoprolinuria, is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized, in its severe form, by massive urinary excretion of 5-oxoproline, metabolic acidosis, hemolytic anemia, and central nervous system damage. The metabolic defect results in decreased levels of cellular glutathione, which overstimulates the synthesis of gamma-glutamylcysteine and its subsequent conversion to 5-oxoproline (Larsson and Anderson, 2001).;

Inheritance : Autosomal recessive;

Prefixed ID : #266130;
