Abstract excerpt
The predicted mutability profile (MUTPRED) of the phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) gene shows that the 48 CpG sites (template and atemplate strands) are either empty of known mutations (7 sites), harbour "PKU" alleles involving CpG doublets (16 sites), or contain mutations that do not involve a C-->T or G-->A substitution in the doublet. These hypermutable sites harbour 32 different mutations in association with...
