Abstract
We report on the seventh known patient with S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase (SAHH) deficiency presenting at birth with features resembling phosphomannomutase 2 (PMM2-CDG Ia) deficiency. Plasma methionine and total homocysteine levels were normal at 2months and increased only after the 8th month of age. SAHH deficiency was confirmed at 4.5years of age by showing decreased SAHH activity (11% in both erythrocytes and fibroblasts), and compound heterozygosity for a known mutation c.145C>T (p.R49C) and a novel variant c.211G>A (p.G71S) in the AHCY gene. Retrospective analysis of clinical features revealed striking similarities between SAHH deficiency and the PMM2-CDG Ia.
