Phenylketonuria mutation in Chinese haplotype 44 identical with haplotype 2 mutation in northern-European Caucasians.

Abstract excerpt

DNA amplification with the polymerase chain reaction was employed to identify the phenylketonuria (PKU) mutation in Chinese PKU families. The amplified DNA was hybridized with oligonucleotides corresponding to the two most common mutant alleles, i.e., mutations associated with PKU haplotype 2 and 3 among Caucasians of northern-European ancestry. The results of analysis demonstrate that the mutation in Chinese...
