Identical studies using stable isotopes were performed before and after a 3-day trial of oral N-carbamyl-l-glutamate (NCG) in 5 subjects with late-onset carbamyl phosphate synthetase deficiency. NCG augmented ureagenesis and decreased plasma ammonia in 4 of 5 subjects. There was marked improvement in nitrogen metabolism with long-term NCG administration in 1 subject.
