Abstract excerpt
Mutations, haplotypes, and other polymorphic markers in the phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) gene were analysed in 133 unrelated Czech families with classical phenylketonuria (PKU). Almost 95% of all mutant alleles were identified, using a combination of PCR and restriction analysis, denaturing gr...
