Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Hyperphenylalaninemia (HPA) is an inherited metabolic disorder that is caused by a deficiency of phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) or tetrahydrobiopterin. The prevalence of HPA varies widely around the world. METHODS: A spectrum of HPA candidate genes in 1020 Chinese HPA patients was reported. Sanger sequencing, next generation sequencing (NGS), multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA)...
