Notes:
At time of acute attack:
1. Collect a random urine sample first (50 ml with no preservatives), before attempting to collect a 24-h sample.
2. Request "Porphyrin Precursors" (ALA & PBG) instead of "Porphyrins" screen and quantitation. The Laboratory will
have to adjust pH to 4-6 for "Porphyrin Precursors", but pH 8-10 for "Porphyrins". - The commonest problem causing
confusion!
3. All sample containers should be covered with tin foil to shield off from light.

CASE
A boy, average hematologic parameters over the subsequent 3 years were as

Defect in:
Porphyrin
synthesis
Heme synthesis
Globin synthesis
Hemoglobin (Hb) level, 70.0 g/L;
Mean corpuscular hemoglobin level, consistently < 20 pg;
Reticulocyte counts ranged from 3.6% to 6.7%;
A physical examination revealed scars on the face, hands, and
forearms. → photosensitive bullous dermatosis
The diapers exhibited brilliant pink fluorescence when illuminated with
long-range ultraviolet light. → Photosensitive porphyrin rings
Fluorescent red cells were detected using a microscope fitted with a
405 nm light source. → CEP or EP
A 50-mL urine sample contained 2003 ug uroporphyrin (normal,
trace); 92% of this was uro-I. → CEP
Erythrocyte UROS activity was 21% of the normal mean.
Collectively, these findings confirmed the diagnosis of CEP.
Erythrocyte UROS activity was normal in both parents, an unexpected finding
as obligate carriers (heterozygotes) for UROS mutations generally have halfnormal enzymatic activity.
UROS was sequenced, and no mutations or deletions were found in the
child or the parents.
A GATA1 point mutation was found in the child at codon 216, changing
arginine to tryptophan (R216W), as well as on 1 of the 2 GATA1 alleles of his
mother and maternal grandmother.
GATA1 gene, at Xp11.23, encodes a transcription factor, GATA binding
factor 1 (GATA-1), that is critical for normal erythropoiesis, globin
gene expression, and megakaryocyte development.
GATA-1 also regulates expression of UROS in developing erythrocytes.
