Mutation analysis at the phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) locus was undertaken in 56 Egyptian hyperphenylalaninemic patients. Selected screening for 11 known mutations and denaturing Gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) analysis of the entire coding sequence and exon/intron boundaries led to the identification of a new mutation (I224T), four previously described mutations, and several polymorphisms. Overall, 18...
