Detail information to gene locus by the National Center for Biotechnology Information NCBI:
E79.8
rare
autosomal recessive
mutation in the DPYD gene
unexpected severe 5FU toxicity
The spectrum of clinical presentations in subjects with the full biochemical phenotype of DPD deficiency ranges from asymptomatic individuals to severely affected patients suffering from seizures, microcephaly, muscular hypotonia, developmental delay and eye abnormalities [Fleger M et al. 2017]
