  • Title: Prolidase deficiency: a patient without hydroxyproline-containing iminodipeptides in urine.
    Author: Wysocki SJ, Hahnel R, Mahoney T, Wilson RG, Panegyres PK.
    Journal: J Inherit Metab Dis; 1988; 11(2):161-5. PubMed ID: 3139928.
    Abstract:
    A 17-year-old girl was shown to have prolidase deficiency on the basis of the presence of large amounts of proline-containing dipeptides in urine and an almost complete absence of prolidase in plasma and erythrocytes. Unlike most earlier cases of this genetic defect our patient did not excrete hydroxyproline-containing dipeptides in her urine.
