Gyrate atrophy (GA) is an autosomal recessive eye disease involving a progressive loss of vision due to chorioretinal degeneration in which the mitochondrial matrix enzyme ornithine aminotransferase (OAT) is defective.
Gyrate atrophy (GA), a recessive eye disease involving progressive vision loss due to chorioretinal degeneration, is associated with the deficiency of the mitochondrial enzyme ornithine aminotransferase (OAT), with consequent hyperornithinemia.
Gyrate atrophy (GA), a recessive eye disease involving progressive loss of vision due to chorioretinal degeneration, is associated with a deficiency of the mitochondrial enzyme ornithine aminotransferase (OATase; ornithine-oxo-acid aminotransferase; L-ornithine:2-oxo-acid aminotransferase, EC 2.6.1.13) with consequent hyperornithinemia.
