Abstract excerpt
A non-radioactive single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) method was used to detect various phenylketonuria (PKU) mutations in Japanese and Chinese patients. Arginine413-to-proline (R413P) mutation in exon 12 of the phenylalanine hydroxylase gene was identified in a Japanese patient by this method. The segregation of the R413P mutation in the proband's family was clearly demonstrated and the carrier status...
