General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) deficiency (AADCD) is a rare, autosomal recessive neurometabolic disorder caused by a deficit of the AADC that is involved in serotonin and dopamine biosynthesis, causing serotonin and dopamine deficits, but also a lack of norepinephrine and epinephrine, given that dopamine is their precursor. The mutation S250F causes permanent dystonic posture at the 4 limbs with numbness and tingling, diplopia, and low potassium levels, mood problems, fever, bradycardia alternating with atrial and ventricular fibrillation, loss of consciousness, involuntary parossistic eye and head movements, bilateral ptosis, oculogyric crises with dystonia of the head, muscle hypotrophy, and absent deep tendon reflexes. The phenotypic spectrum of AADCD is broad and can range from very severe to relatively mild, overview Homo sapiens
