| Allelic Variant 1 |
R26C; PORPHYRIA, ACUITE INTERMITTENT |
| Identified Mutation |
ARG26CYS |
| Remarks |
Active AIP; deficient URO synthetase; positive family history; donor subject is heterozygous for a C>T transition at nucleotide 76 in exon 3 of the HMBS gene (76C>T) resulting in the substitution of cysteine for arginine at codon 26 [Arg26Cys (R26C)] |
