hawkinsinuria
haw·kin·sin·u·ria (haw″kin-sin-uґre-ə) a rare autosomal dominant disorder caused by heterozygous mutation in the HPD gene (locus: 12q24-qter), which encodes 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase, an enzyme important in tyrosine catabolism. It is characterized by excretion of hawkinsin in urine, metabolic acidosis, and failure to thrive in infancy; hypertyrosinemia is absent or minimal. Cf. tyrosinemia type III.
