Abstract
We report two methods for prenatal diagnosis of gyrate atrophy of the retina and choroid caused by an inborn error of ornithine aminotransferase activity. A high pressure liquid chromatography assay measures ornithine aminotransferase accurately and directly in cultured amniotic fluid cells. The differential incorporation of 14C-ornithine and 3H-leucine into cell protein measures OAT directly but rapidly and simply.Entities:
