Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Phenylalanine hydroxylase deficiency spans from mild hyperphenylalaninemia (MHP) to mild PKU phenylketonuria (mPKU) and classic PKU (cPKU). Genotype-phenotype inference is complicated by allelic heterogeneity and the incomplete functional annotation of complementary DNA-only variant strings. METHODS: We analyzed 23,427 individuals with 2 PAH alleles and metabolic phenotype (MHP [n = 4208, 18.0%], mPKU [n...
