Abstract excerpt
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a genetic disorder caused by variations in the phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) gene. Among the 3369 reported PAH variants, 33.7% are missense alterations. Unfortunately, 30% of these missense variants are classified as variants of unknown significance (VUS), posing challenges for genetic risk assessment. In our study, we focused on analyzing 836 missense PAH variants following the...
