Deoxyhypusine synthase mutations alter the post-translational modification of eukaryotic initiation factor 5A resulting in impaired human and mouse neural homeostasis

Summary: DHPS deficiency is a rare genetic disease caused by biallelic hypomorphic variants in the Deoxyhypusine synthase (DHPS) gene. The DHPS enzyme functions in mRNA translation by catalyzing the post-translational modification, and therefore activation, of eukaryotic initiation factor 5A (eIF5A)...
