Carnosinemia
text:
Carnosinemia is a rare autosomal recessive metabolic disorder caused by a deficiency of carnosinase, a dipeptidase. Carnosine is a dipeptide composed of beta-alanine and histidine, and is found in skeletal muscle and cells of the nervous system. This disorder results in an excess of carnosine in the urine, cerebrospinal fluid, blood, and nervous tissue. Neurological disorders associated with a deficiency of carnosinase, and the resulting carnosinemia are common.
