3-Ureidoisobutyrate is increased in the urine of patients with beta-ureidopropionase deficiency and can be used to predict patient′s individual phenotypes of enzyme deficiencies in pyrimidine metabolism when associated with a risk for severe toxicity against the antineoplastic agent 5-fluorouracil.

Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DHPDase), dihydropyrimidinase (DHPase) and beta-ureidopropionase (betaUPase) are the enzymes that catalyze the first, second, and third steps of the degradation of pyrimidines, respectively. beta-Ureidopropionate (betaUP) and beta-ureidoisobutyrate (betaUIB) are increased in the urine of patients with betaUPase deficiency.

Enzyme deficiencies in pyrimidine metabolism are associated with a risk for severe toxicity against the antineoplastic agent 5-fluorouracil. To assess whether urinary levels of pyrimidines and their metabolites can be used for predicting patients' individual phenotype, a new gas chromatographic-tandem

beta-Ureidopropionase deficiency is an inborn error of the pyrimidine degradation pathway, affecting the cleavage of N-carbamyl-beta-alanine and N-carbamyl-beta-aminoisobutyric acid. In this study, we report the elucidation of the genetic basis underlying a beta-ureidopropionase deficiency in four patients presenting with neurological
