Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To establish a simple, rapid, inexpensive and sensitive method for detecting hot region for mutations in exon 7 of PAH gene. METHODS: High-resolution melting (HRM) technology was used to detect a c.728G>A mutation in exon 7 in 88 patients with classical type phenylketonuria. Suspected mutations were validated by direct DNA sequencing. RESULTS: The results detected by HRM are in good agreement with the...
