Porfiria cutanea tardia: Deteccion de una nueva mutacion en la uroporfirinogeno decarboxilasa mediante rt-pcr y secuenciacion directa
Porphyria Cutanea Tarda (PCT) and Hepatoerythropoietic Porphyria (HEP) are characterized by a deficiency in the activity of Uroporphyrinogen decarboxyiase (URO-D), the fifth enzyme in the heme pathway, which catalises the sequential decarboxylation of Uroporphyrinogen to Coproporphyrinogen.There are...
