Abstract excerpt
Exon 7 of the phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) gene was analyzed in 45 children affected with classic phenylketonuria (PKU) from northern China by using PCR-single strand conformation polymorphism (PCR-SSCP) technique and DNA direct sequencing. Six missense mutations (i.e. R243Q, R241H, G247V, L249H, P254I and G257V) and one silent mutation (V245V) were identified. The latter three missense mutations were...
