Carglumic Acid

An analogue of N-acetylglutamate that activates the enzyme carbamoyl phosphate synthetase 1, the first step of the urea cycle; an orphan drug approved in the United States in 2010 for hyperammonaemia, particularly due to NAGS deficiency. This family brings together the active ingredient, labelled standards and other impurities.

Did you know?It stands in for a molecule that people with NAGS deficiency cannot make: without N-acetylglutamate the urea cycle cannot start and ammonia builds up in the blood.
