Muscle Carnitine Palmityltransferase Deficiency and Myoglobinuria

DiMauro, Salvatore, DiMauro, Paola M. Melis·1973·Science

Abstract

Muscle carnitine palmityltransferase activity, measured by three different methods, was very low (0 to 20 percent of controls) in a patient with a familial syndrome of recurrent myoglobinuria. Long-chain fatty acyl CoA synthetase activity was normal; acetylcarnitine transferase activity was decreased by 40 percent, and carnitine content was 1.7 times higher than the mean control value. Utilization of palmitate by isolated mitochondria was more impaired than utilization of palmitylcarnitine, suggesting a more severe defect of carnitine palmityltransferase I than transferase II. Thus, myoglobinuria may be due to a genetic defect of lipid metabolism in skeletal muscle.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
