Abstract excerpt

Five sequence polymorphisms at the phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) gene locus were observed to be in tight association with specific alleles of this locus. Since these polymorphisms can be detected using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) methodology, application of a combination of these polymorphi...
