Protein Variants Comment Organism
F199C a naturally occuring mutation T596G, leads to 8% residual HPRT activity and causes juvenile-onset, severe gouty arthritis, nephrolithiasis, and mild neurologic symptoms. Adenine phosphoribosyltransferase, APRT, EC 2.4.2.7, in erythrocytes from subjects with HPRT deficiency is typically increased about 2–3fold compared with controls.

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction a deficiency in HPRT activity leads to overproduction of uric acid, hyperuricemia, with gouty arthritis, nephrolithiasis, and mild neurologic symptoms. According to the degree of enzymatic deficiency, a large spectrum of neurologic features can also be observed, ranging from mild or no neurologic involvement to complete Lesch-Nyhan disease Homo sapiens
