Alkaptonuria, a rare genetic disorder, affects one in every 250,000 to 1 million individuals worldwide. This condition arises due to a deficiency in the enzyme homogentisate 1,2-dioxygenase (HGD), which is crucial for breaking down the amino acids tyrosine and phenylalanine. The lack of this enzyme’s activity leads to the accumulation of homogentisic acid in the […]

Adrenal hypoplasia congenita (AHC) is a rare genetic condition that affects the development and functionality of the adrenal glands, which are crucial for producing hormones that regulate various bodily functions. The NR0B1 gene, also known as DAX1, plays a significant role in this condition. Mutations in the NR0B1 gene can lead to the congenital form […]
Adrenal Hyperplasia due to Steroid 11-Beta-Hydroxylase Deficiency is a rare genetic disorder affecting the adrenal glands. This condition is part of a group of disorders known as congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH), which interferes with the body’s ability to produce certain hormones. Specifically, this form of CAH is caused by mutations in the CYP11B1 gene, leading […]
Cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase (POR) deficiency is a rare genetic condition that affects steroidogenesis. This condition is caused by mutations in the POR gene, which plays a crucial role in the biosynthesis of steroid hormones in the adrenal gland. The symptoms of POR deficiency can vary widely among affected individuals, ranging from mild to severe manifestations. […]
Adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency is a condition that affects the adrenal glands, which are responsible for producing hormones that regulate various functions within the body. This condition is caused by mutations in the CYP21A2 gene, leading to a deficiency in the enzyme 21-hydroxylase. This enzyme plays a crucial role in the synthesis of […]
Adenylosuccinate lyase (ADSL) deficiency is a rare genetic disorder that affects the brain’s development and function. This condition is caused by mutations in the ADSL gene, which plays a crucial role in the purine nucleotide cycle. The purine nucleotide cycle is essential for the production of DNA and RNA, and any disruption in this cycle […]
Adenine Phosphoribosyltransferase (APRT) Deficiency is a rare genetic disorder that can lead to kidney disease and, in severe cases, kidney failure. It’s caused by mutations in the APRT gene, which plays a crucial role in the body’s processing of adenine, one of the four main nucleobases found in DNA. When this gene is defective, adenine […]
ACADVL gene acyl-CoA very long-chain dehydrogenase deficiency, commonly known as VLCAD deficiency, is a rare genetic disorder that affects the body’s ability to break down certain fats into energy, particularly during periods of fasting or illness. This condition is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern, which means that an individual must inherit two copies of […]
Symptoms of ACADS Gene Acyl-CoA Short-Chain Dehydrogenase Deficiency Acyl-CoA Short-Chain Dehydrogenase Deficiency (ACADSD) is a rare genetic disorder that affects the body’s ability to break down certain fats into energy, particularly during periods of fasting. This condition is caused by mutations in the ACADS gene, which plays a critical role in the metabolism of short-chain […]
