Histidinaemia in a consanguineous marriage

AUTOR(ES)

Rostenberg, I.

RESUMO

Support to the autosomal recessive inheritance for histidinaemia is given by the finding of an affected product from a first-cousin marriage. The histidine loading test done on the parents confirms previous reports that female heterozygous metabolize the amino acid at a slower rate than male heterozygous.
