Molecular analysis of a presymptomatic case of carnitine palmitoyl transferase I (CPT I) deficiency detected by tandem mass spectrometry newborn screening in Japan

Rie Tsuburaya et al. Brain Dev. 2010 May.

Abstract

Carnitine palmitoyl transferase I (CPT I) deficiency is a rare disorder of long-chain fatty acid oxidation. It is one of the metabolic diseases detectable by tandem mass spectrometry. We report herein a presymptomatic CPT I deficiency detected in a Japanese female newborn by tandem mass spectrometry newborn screening. A mutation analysis of the CPT1A gene revealed two novel mutations, p.R446X and p.G719D.
