Dihydropyrimidinase (DHP, EC 3.5.2.2) is the second enzyme of the pyrimidine degradation pathway and a deficiency of this enzyme is responsible for a rare inborn metabolic syndrome characterized by dihydropyrimidinuria. Here we report a cat with DHP deficiency, manifesting malnutrition, depression, vomiting, and hyperammonemia. A gas chromatographic-mass spectrometric analysis of urinary metabolic substances showed the presence of large amounts of dihydrouracil and dihydrothymine and moderate amounts of uracil and thymine, suggesting DHP deficiency. Analysis of the feline DPYS gene encoding DHP demonstrated that the cat was homozygous for the missense mutation c.1303G>A… Continue reading →
