Aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) deficiency is an autosomal recessive disorders of monoamine neurotransmitter metabolism, clinically characterized by vegetative symptoms, oculogyric crises, dystonia, and severe neurologic dysfunction in infancy. Mutations in the gene encoding for the enzyme AADC (DDC) lead to a severe combined deficiency of serotonin and the two catecholamines, dopamine and norepinephrine.
