General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction pyruvate decarboxylase deficiency type A is characterised by hypoglycemia accompanied by mild to moderate lactic acidemia and sometimes elevated ketone body levels. Type B, having no detectable pyruvate carboxylase protein in any tissues, is the most severe form which leads to death generally within three months from lactic academia accompanied by hyperammonemia, citrullinemia and hyperlysinemia. Type C has a benign phenotype associated with episodes of lactic acidemia and no psychomotor disorders Homo sapiens
