Inborn errors of metabolism are genetic disorders in which the body cannot properly turn food into energy or breakdown waste products. The disorders are usually caused by defects in specific enzymes that help metabolize, catabolize or synthesize chemical compounds.

Resources

For clinicians and scientists in the field of inborn errors of metabolism, good resources include books by Scriver [1]. Fernandes [2], Clarke [3], Blau [4], Blau [5], Lyon [6], Nyhan [7], Hoffmann [8] and Zschocke [9]. Other ressources include genetests, orphanet, OMIM, societies such as the SSIEM, the SIMD and links therein. For medical students and clinicians looking for overviews of the field, such reviews can be found on pubmed and in good pediatric textbooks (e.g. articles by Saudubray[10], Ellaway[11], Raghuveer[12] or Burton[13] and textbooks by Hay[14] or Behrman[15]).

For patients, their families and students seeking good information or networks, the National Institutes of Health offers many resources : the office of rare diseases, genetics home reference, medlineplus and health information. Also part of the NIH, the National Human Genome Research Institute hosts the genetic and rare diseases information center, a section on genetics and genomics for patients and the public and additional educational resources. Other excellent resources include NORD, orphanet and the genetic education center at the KUMC.
