  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

The Lesch-Nyhan syndrome is an X-linked disease characterized by overproduction of uric acidand a central-nervous-system disorder consisting of mental retardation, spasticity, choreoathetosis, and a compulsive form of self-mutilation. A complete deficiency in hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyl transferase (HPRT) provides the underlying metabolic basis for this disorder. HPRT activity is partially deficient in a severe from of gout. Patients with this disease do not suffer from the neurologic abnormality found in the Lesch-Nyhan syndrome.
