Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is a rare inborn error of bone metabolism caused by inactivating mutations in the gene encoding the TNSALP isoenzyme. With deficiency of TNSALP, there is a buildup of extracellular PPi which inhibits mineralization of bone matrix. This is manifested as rickets in children and osteomalacia in adults.
