This video is on Salvage Pathway of Purines and Lesch Nyhan Syndrome which is in born error associated with the deficiency of HGPRTase enzyme with NEET PG and AIIMS MCQs.

Salvage pathway involved in the conversion of free purines to nucleotides is called salvage pathway. It consists of a single reaction
Free purine bases (adenine, guanine and hypoxan­thine) are formed in cells during the metabolic degradation of nucleic acids and nucleotides which are salvaged and used over again to remake purine nucleo­tides.

Lesch-Nyhan Syndrome
Inherited X-linked recessive disorder, that affects only males.
It is caused by a complete deficiency of HGPRTase, an enzyme which is involved in purine salvage pathway
