%X Background: Carbamoyl phosphate synthetase 1 (CPS1) is a liver-specific enzyme with the lowest enzymatic rate, which determines the overall rate of the other reactions in the pathway that converts ammonia to carbamoyl phosphate in the first step of the urea cycle. Carbamoyl phosphate synthetase 1 deficiency (CPS1D), which usually presents as lethal hyperammonemia, is a rare autosomal recessive hereditary disease. Case: We report a case of a two-day-old female neonate with lethal hyperammonemia. The newborn infant was presented with hyperammonemia (34.7 ˋˋg/ml; reference range 1.1每1.9). In Plasma amino acid analysis, there was a significant elevated levels of alanine (3,004 ˋˋmol/L; reference range, 236每410 ˋˋmol/L), glutamine (2,256 ˋˋmol/L; reference range, 20每107 ˋˋmol/L), asparagine (126 ˋˋmol/L; reference range, 30每69 ˋˋmol/L), glutamic acid (356 ˋˋmol/L; reference range, 14每192 ˋˋmol/L), aspartic acid (123 ˋˋmol/L; reference range, 0每24 ˋˋmol/L), and lysine (342 ˋˋmol/L; reference range, 114每269 ˋˋmol/L). We cannot diagnose the urea cycle disorder (UCD) CPS1D properly only based on the quantity of biochemical intermediary metabolites to exclude other UCDs with similar symptoms. Following next generation sequencing determined one homozygous mutation in CPS1 gene and also this mutation was determined in her parents. The identified mutation was c.2758G > C; p.Asp920His, in the 23 exon of CPS1. This novel homozygous mutation had not been reported previously. Conclusion: We applied whole exome sequencing successfully to diagnose the patient with CPS1D in a clinical setting. This result supports the clinical applicability of whole exome sequencing for cost-effective molecular diagnosis of UCDs
