Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To obtain the mutation spectrum of exon 12 of the phenylalanine hydroxylase(PAH) gene. METHODS: The samples from 127 patients with phenylketonuria(PKU) were studied by polymerase chain reaction(PCR)-single strand conformation polymorphism(SSCP) PCR-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis(DGGE) and direct DNA sequencing. RESULTS: Four heterozygous mutations including R413P S411X R408W R408Q in 10 of...
