Adenine phosphoribosyltransferase deficiency

An autosomal recessive metabolic disorder that can lead to accumulation of the insoluble purine 2,8-dihydroxyadenine (DHA) in the KIDNEY, resulting in crystalluria and KIDNEY STONES. Clinical features include RENAL COLIC; HEMATURIA; URINARY TRACT INFECTION; DYSURIA, and sometimes RENAL FAILURE. The age at onset can range from 5 months to late adulthood; however, as many as 50% of APRT-deficient individuals may be asymptomatic. Caused by mutations in the APRT gene. OMIM: 614723

Also Known As:

2,8-Dihydroxyadenine Urolithiasis; 2,8-Dihydroxyadeninuria; APRT Deficiency; DHA Crystalline Nephropathy; Urolithiasis, 2,8-Dihydroxyadenine
