Phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) catalyzes the conversion of phenylalanine to tyrosine; its activity is the major determinant of phenylalanine disposal. Mutations in the corresponding human gene (PAH), which encodes the human hepatic PAH enzyme, result in hyperphenylalaninemia; the resulting phenotyp
In swine, a point mutation in the ryanodine receptor gene can account for all cases of malignant hyperthermia (MH). The frequency of a corresponding mutation in humans (C1840-T) and its relationship to the in vitro contracture profile is unknown. We screened 192 patients from 28 unrelated northern G
