6-Pyruvoyl-Tetrahydrobiopterin Synthase (PTPS) Deficiency is a rare genetic condition that reduces the body’s supply of tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4). BH4 is a natural helper molecule (a “cofactor”). ...
Acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase deficiency is a rare, inherited metabolic disease. The body lacks enough activity of an enzyme called mitochondrial acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase (also called T2, encoded by the ...
3-oxothiolase deficiency is a rare, inherited metabolic disorder. The body cannot properly break down the amino acid isoleucine. The body also cannot use ketone bodies well. Ketone bodies are fuels ...

B-cell expansion with nuclear factor kappa-light-chain enhancer of activated B cells and T-cell anergy disease is a rare, inherited immune system disorder. “BENTA” stands for B-cell Expansion with ...
B-cell Expansion with NF-κB and T-cell Anergy is a rare, inherited immune disorder caused by gain-of-function (GOF) mutations in the gene CARD11. CARD11 sits inside lymphocytes (B and T cells) and ...
BENTA disease is a rare genetic problem of the immune system. “BENTA” stands for B-cell Expansion with NF-κB and T-cell Anergy. In simple words, people with BENTA make too many young B cells (a type ...
FGFR2-related bent bone dysplasia is a very rare genetic bone disorder. It starts before birth. A single gene called FGFR2 has a harmful change (a mutation). This change upsets normal bone growth. As ...
Benign recurrent intrahepatic cholestasis (BRIC) caused by ATP8B1 mutation is a rare, inherited liver disorder. “Benign” here means it usually does not cause permanent liver damage. “Recurrent” means ...
ATP8B1 Benign Recurrent Intrahepatic Cholestasis (BRIC1) is a rare, inherited liver condition caused by changes in the ATP8B1 gene. This gene helps keep the tiny bile channels in the liver stable. ...
Summerskill–Walshe–Tygstrup syndrome is a rare, inherited liver condition. People with this condition have repeated attacks of cholestasis, which means the liver cannot release bile properly. During ...
