Inborn Errors Of Urea Cycle Flashcards
Urea cycle also called
Ornithine cycle
Kreb’s henseleit cycle
Urea
Carbamide
Urea cycle consists of five reactions
2 mitochondria
3 cytosolic
CO2 + H2O ( bicarbonate and ammonia) to carbamoyl phosphate
Carbamoyl phosphate synthetase 1
Carbamoyl phosphate + ornithine
Citrulline
Enzyme: ornithine transcarbamoylase
How many ATo used in first reaction of urea cycle?
2 ATP
Citrulline to arginosuccinate
Arginisuccinate synthase
How many ATP used un 3rd reaction of urea cycle?
1ATP
Citrulline reacts with_______ then convert to arginosuccinate with the enzyme ________
Aspartic acid
Arginosuccinate synthetase
Fumarate form of urea goes to
Krebs cycle
Must be transported back to mitochondria to continue the urea cycle
Ornithine
Citrulline reacts to ______ and ysed arginosuccinate synthase
Aspartate
Arginosuccinate become ________ and ________ by the used of enzyme __________
Arginine and fumarate
Arginosuccinate lyase
Arginine to ornithine
Arginase
As by product in 3rd reaction in cytosol produce
Urea
AA that nitrogen travels in the blood
Alanine
Glutamine
CPS1
Urea cycle
Mitochondria
Ammonia
Activate by N-AGA ( N-AcetylGlutamicAcid)
CPS2
Pyrimidine
Cytosol
Glutamine
No activator
Deficient enzyme in hyperammonemia type 1
Carbamoyl phosphate
All disorder in UREA cylce is autosomal except to
Hyperammonemia type2
Chromosome that affected in CPS deficiency?
Chromosome 2q35
Urinary orotic acid is usually low or absent
Hyperammonemia type 1
Deficient enzyme in hyperammonemia type 2
Ornithine trans carbomylase
Most common form of the urea cycle disorder
HT2
Walang elevation of glutamine and alanine sa
HT2
Deficient enzyme in citrullinemia
Arginosuccinate synthetase
Laboratory finding are similar to those in type2 but increase plasma citrulline mas mataas din ang orotic acid.
Citrullinemia
Loaction of citrullinemia
Chromosome 9q34
Enzyme deficient in arginosuccinate aciduria
Arginosuccinase
Lacation of arginosuccinate aciduria
Chromosome 7
Enzyme defect in hyoerarginemia
Arginase
Location of hyperarginemia
Chromosome 6q23
Increase glutamine and alanine but decrease citrulline
Hyperammonemia type 1
Increase glutamine and alanine
Hyperammonemia type 2
Increase citrulline
Citrullinemia
Increase gluatamine, alanine, citrulline and arginosuccinic acid
Arginosuccinate acidosis
Increase arginine, normal or increase lysine, cysteine and ornithine
Arginemia
Decrease or absent of orothic acid
Hyperammonemia type 1
Increase orothic acid
With gravel stone
Hyper ammonemia type 2
Increase orothic acid
Citrullinemia
Argenemia
Carbamoyl phosphate + aspartate
Orotic acid
No conversion of NH4 to urea
HYperammonemia
Glutamic acid + ammonia
Glutamine
Leads to hyperglutaminemia
Ammonia react with alpha ketoglutarate to form
Glutamate
3 fold basis of therapy
Limit protein intake
Lactulose/levulose- prevent absorption of ammonia
Replace depleted/ missing enzyme
DOC
Neomycin
Benzoic acid binds with glycine
Phenylacetateglutamine
