Late-onset X-linked sideroblastic anemia. Missense mutations in the erythroid delta-aminolevulinate synthase (ALAS2) gene in two pyridoxine-responsive patients initially diagnosed with acquired refractory anemia and ringed sideroblasts.

X-linked sideroblastic anemia (XLSA) is caused by mutations of the erythroid-specific delta-aminolevulinate synthase gene (ALAS2) resulting in deficient heme synthesis. The characteristic hypochromic, microcytic anemia typically becomes manifest in the first three decades of life. Hematologic respon...
