HLCS Antibody – Rabbit Polyclonal

HLCS: Post-translational modification of specific protein by attachment of biotin. Acts on various carboxylases such as acetyl- CoA-carboxylase, pyruvate carboxylase, propionyl CoA carboxylase, and 3-methylcrotonyl CoA carboxylase. Defects in HLCS are the cause of holocarboxylase synthetase deficiency (HLCS deficiency); also known as biotin-responsive multiple carboxylase deficiency. HLCS deficiency is a neonatal form of multiple carboxylase deficiency, an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by metabolic ketoacidosis, hyperammonemia, excretion of abnormal organic acid metabolites and dermatitis. Clinical and biochemical symptoms improve dramatically with administration of biotin. Belongs to the biotin--protein ligase family.
