Pyridox (am) ine 5'-phosphate oxidase (PNPO) is a rate-limiting enzyme in converting dietary vitamin B6 (VB6) to pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP), the biologically active form of VB6 and involved in the synthesis of neurotransmitters including γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), dopamine, and serotonin. In humans, PNPO mutations have been increasingly identified in neonatal
