LITERATURE
L70P/R450C
-
L70P and R450C mutations in the coding region of the UROC1 gene in a girl with urocanic aciduria presenting with mental retardation and intermittent ataxia. Both mutations cannot produce a fully functional enzyme, L70P substitution implies the disruption of an alpha-helix in the N-terminus, which alters its properties and therefore, its function. The R450C change renders impossible any interaction between urocanase and its substrate and loses its enzyme activity
