Abstract

Several genetic abnormalities can produce excessive excretion of urinary homocystine. Cystathion β-synthase deficiency (CBS) is the most common. Others include 5,10-methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase deficiency, defects in cobalamine and folate metabolism, and nutritional deficiencies of vitamin B12 and folate. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
