| Carnitine-acylcarnitine translocase deficiency (CACT deficiency) [MIM:212138]: A rare long-chain fatty acid oxidation disorder. Metabolic consequences include hypoketotic hypoglycemia under fasting conditions, hyperammonemia, elevated creatine kinase and transaminases, dicarboxylic aciduria, very low free carnitine and abnormal acylcarnitine profile with marked elevation of the long-chain acylcarnitines. Clinical features include neurologic abnormalities, cardiomyopathy, arrhythmias, skeletal muscle damage, liver dysfunction and episodes of life-threatening coma, which eventually lead to death. Most patients become symptomatic in the neonatal period with a rapidly progressive deterioration and a high mortality rate. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
