Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To explore new mutation in phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) gene. METHODS: The PAH genes from 40 phenylketonuria (PKU) patients and 30 normal controls were screened by PCR-single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) and further sequencing. RESULTS: Eleven mutations and 3 polymorphisms in PAH gene were found. No abnormalities in the PAH gene from 30 controls were detected. CONCLUSION: M276K, M276R,...
