MeSH	[1]

Hawkinsinuria, also called 4-Alpha-hydroxyphenylpyruvate hydroxylase deficiency, is an autosomal dominant metabolic disorder affecting the metabolism of the sulfur amino acid hawkinsin.^[1]

It is characterized by transient metabolic acidosis and tyrosinemia.

Hawkinsinuria has an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance.
