L-Pipecolic acid, a cyclic imino acid produced during the degradation of lysine, accumulates in body fluids of infants with the generalized peroxisomal disorders, including Zellweger syndrome, neonatal adrenoleukodystrophy, and infantile Refsum disease. Peroxisome-enriched fractions from normal human liver oxidized L-[3H]pipecolic

Journal of pharmaceutical and biomedical analysis, 11(10), 881-886 (1993-10-01)
Recently it was found that normal adults excrete pipecolic acid primarily as the D-enantiomer even though it is present in the blood stream mainly as the L-enantiomer (i.e. > 98% L). This study of pipecolic acid stereochemistry was extended to

We describe an 18-year-old patient with psychomotor retardation and abnormally short metatarsi and metacarpals but no other signs of classic Refsum disease. Molecular analysis of the phytanoyl-coenzyme A hydroxylase gene revealed a homozygous deletion causing a frameshift. Surprisingly, L-pipecolic acid
