3-Ureidopropionate (3-UPA) is a physiologic metabolite in pyrimidine degradation. Pathological accumulation of 3-UPA in body fluids is found in 3-ureidopropionase deficiency and severe forms of propionic aciduria. Both diseases clinically present with a severe neuropathology involving gray and white matter

A radiochemical assay was developed to measure the activity of beta-ureidopropionase in human liver homogenates which is based on the detection of the reaction product (14)CO(2) by liquid scintillation counting. Radiolabeled N-carbamyl-beta-alanine was prepared within 15 min by a simple

The metabolism of [5-3H]uridine and the incorporation of the precursor into liver RNA was studied in developing (13-day-old) and adult (45-day-old) mice. Different time-courses of labelling and increased amounts of labelled catabolic products of uridine were found in liver and

Two modified procedures for the colorimetric quantitation of citrulline aimed primarily at the assay of ornithine transcarbamylase were developed. Both methods give highly reproducible results in a short period of time since color is developed in 25 min at 100

To evaluate the significance of inborn metabolic disorders of the pyrimidine degradation pathway, 450 children with unspecific neurological symptoms were comprehensively studied; 200 healthy children were recruited as controls. Uracil and thymine as well as their degradation products in urine
