Citrullinemia Information
Citrullinemia is an inherited disorder that causes ammonia and other toxic substances to accumulate in the blood. Two forms of citrullinemia have been described; they have different signs and symptoms and are caused by mutations in different genes. Citrullinemia belongs to a class of genetic diseases called urea cycle disorders. The urea cycle is a sequence of chemical reactions that takes place in the liver. These reactions process excess nitrogen, generated when protein is used by the body, to make a compound called urea that is excreted by the kidneys.
