Metabolite Identification
Common NameSuccinic acid semialdehyde
DescriptionSuccinic acid semialdehyde is an intermediate in the catabolism of gamma-aminobutyrate (PMID 16435183 ). Succinate semialdehyde dehydrogenase is an enzyme that catalyses the reaction of succinate semialdehyde and NAD+ to form succinate and NADH. Succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase (SSADH) deficiency (gamma-hydroxybutyric aciduria) is a rare neurometabolic disorder of gamma-aminobutyric acid degradation. Symptoms include motor delay, hypotonia, speech delay, autistic features, seizures, and ataxia. Patients also exhibit behavioral problems, such as attention deficit, hyperactivity, anxiety, or aggression. (PMID: 18622364 ).
