DiseasePUR8_HUMAN Defects in ADSL are the cause of adenylosuccinase deficiency (ADSL deficiency) [MIM:103050. ADSL deficiency is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by the accumulation in the body fluids of succinylaminoimidazole-carboxamide riboside (SAICA-riboside) and succinyladenosine (S-Ado).
