Prenatal diagnosis of triosephosphate isomerase deficiency

First-trimester prenatal diagnosis was undertaken by chorionic villus DNA
analysis in two unrelated families with the inherited glycolytic disorder
triosephosphate isomerase (TPI) deficiency. The propositus in each family
was shown to be homozygous for a missense mutation (GAG --> GAC) at
codon 104 of the TPI gene. In the first case the fetus was heterozygous for
the codon 104 mutation and therefore clinically unaffected. Prenatal
diagnosis in the second case showed the fetus to be homozygous for the
codon 104 mutation and thus affected by TPI deficiency. This represents the
first molecular diagnosis during early pregnancy of a human glycolytic
enzyme disorder.
