Plasma analysis of di- and trihydroxycholestanoic acid diastereoisomers in peroxisomal α-methylacyl-CoA racemase deficiency
We identified a new peroxisomal disorder caused by a deficiency of the enzyme α-methylacyl-coenzyme A (CoA) racemase. Patients with this disorder show elevated plasma levels of pristanic acid and the bile acid intermediates di- and trihydroxycholestanoic acid (DHCA and THCA), which are all substrate...
