  • Title: Non-ketotic hyperglycinaemia: clinical and biochemical aspects.
    Author: Tada K, Hayasaka K.
    Journal: Eur J Pediatr; 1987 May; 146(3):221-7. PubMed ID: 3297708.
    Abstract:
    Non-ketotic hyperglycinaemia is an autosomal recessive disorder of glycine metabolism characterized by elevated concentrations of glycine in plasma, urine and cerebrospinal fluid. The fundamental defect was found to lie in the glycine cleavage system. It is of significance that the major pathway for the catabolism of glycine was elucidated through the studies of hyperglycinaemia. The present knowledge about non-ketotic hyperglycinaemia is described in clinical and biochemical aspects.
