PURPOSE: The nature of phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) variants determines residual enzyme activity, which modifies the clinical phenotype in phenylketonuria (PKU). We exploited the statistical power of a large genotype database to determine the relationship between genotype and phenotype in PKU. METHODS: A total of 9336 PKU patients with 2589 different genotypes, carrying 588 variants, were investigated using an...
