We report a case of GAⅡ with novel electron transfer flavoprotein （ETF）-A mutations in a 2-year-old female with thalassemia minor. The patient developed an episode of hypoglycemia and hypotonicityon the postnatal first day. Laboratory investigations revealed elevations of multiple acyl carnitines indicat-ing glutaric acidemia type Ⅱ in newborn screening analysis. Urinary organic acids were evaluated for the confrmation and revealed a high glutaric acid excretion. Genetic analysis revealed two novel mutations in the ETF-A gene, which are considered to be compound heterozygote. At the 8 mo of life ketone therapy was added, which significantly increased the neuromotor development. The patient had been closely followed for two years with carnitine, ribofavin, coenzyme Q10, and ketone supplementation in addition to a high carbohydrate diet. Although the patient had comorbidity like thalassemia minor, her neuromotor developmentwas normal for her age and had no major health problems. This specific case expands the previously reported spectrum of this disease.展开更多

The bioactivities of the four novel 4-Ar-2-oxo-glutaric acids were studied by using the LC-MS method. The experimental results show that 3-nitrobenzyl-2-oxo-glutaric acid is a mild inhibitor for the hydroxylation reaction catalyzed by PHD2. The decarboxylated peak for 3-fluorobenzyl-2-oxo-glutaric acid was observed by using the negative LC-MS method, indicating that it can be used as a mild cosubstrate to replace 2-OG, but this is possible only in the presence of the prime peptide CODD 19 mer.展开更多

The extraction of lipids from the chloroplasts isolated from the leaves preliminarily fixed in glutaraldehyde has demonstrated that glycerolipids (galactolipids and phospholipids) are not manifested in TLC, whereas isoprenoid lipids (chlorophyll, carotenoids) are manifested. Presumably, isoprenoid lipids are not fixed with glutaraldehyde and are extracted from the thylakoid membrane. The ultrastructural control demonstrates that the electron dense substance from the thylakoid lumen is also extracted. It is possible that this substance is of isoprenoid nature.展开更多
