Adenosine monophosphate deaminase deficiency type 1

Adenosine monophosphate deaminase deficiency type 1 is when your body is missing a special helper called adenosine monophosphate deaminase. This helper is important because it helps break down a special energy source called ATP into smaller bits that our body can use to move and do things. Without this helper, our body can't break down ATP and get the energy we need to do things.

This condition can cause problems like muscle pain, muscle cramps, weakness, and trouble with exercise. It can also make it hard for your body to make new blood cells, which can cause problems with your immune system.

Doctors can help people with this condition by giving them special treatments that can help their body break down ATP and give them the energy they need. They can also help manage the symptoms of this condition so that people can live happy and healthy lives.
