Patients exhibit urinary excretion of specific <jats:italic>N<\/jats:italic>\u2010acetyl amino acids and manifest a heterogeneous clinical spectrum including intellectual disability, motor delay, seizures, moderate to severe mental retardation, absent speech, growth delay, muscular hypotonia and autistic features. Here, we report the case of <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">ACY1<\/jats:styled-content> enzyme deficiency in a 6\u2010year\u2010old girl presenting severe intellectual disability, motor retardation, absence of spontaneous locomotor activity and severe speech delay. Urinary excretion of <jats:italic>N<\/jats:italic>\u2010acetylated amino acids was present. Mutational analysis of <jats:italic><jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">ACY1<\/jats:styled-content><\/jats:italic> gene identified the new homozygous c.1001_1001+5del6 mutation, which alters the <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">mRNA<\/jats:styled-content> transcription leading to exon 13 skipping and inclusion of a premature stop codon (p.<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">Lys308Glufs<\/jats:styled-content>*7). A quantitative fluorescent multiplex\u2010polymerase chain reaction (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">QFM\u2010PCR<\/jats:styled-content>) assay has been set up and confirmed homozygosity of the mutation in the patient's <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">DNA<\/jats:styled-content>. Biochemical analysis showed absence of <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">ACY1<\/jats:styled-content> enzyme activity in the patient's fibroblasts. The structure of the mutated protein has been defined by homology modeling (HM). Our data endorse the hypothesis of a link between this inborn error of metabolism and the neurological manifestations observed in patients with <jats:styled-content
