In the present study we report on the identification of ten novel mutations in the phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) gene of Brazilian patients with phenylketonuria (PKU): IVS5-54A>G, IVS6+17G>T, E205A, F240S, K274E, I318T, L321L, C357G, IVS11+17G>A and S411X. These mutations were detected during the
This report identifies eight new mutations of the phenylalanine hydroxylase gene detected in Italian patients with hyperphenylalaninemia. The trivial name of the mutations, predicted phenotypic effect, and population of origin (Italian region) are as follows: F55L (nonconservative change: classic, m
The spectrum of phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) gene mutations was determined in 25 families of hyperphenylalaninemia identified by a neonatal screening program in Taiwan. The coding sequence and exon-flanking intron sequences of PAH gene were amplified and sequenced. Mutations were identified in fo
We here describe the detection of a de novo mutation in the phenylalanine hydroxylase gene in a Norwegian phenylketonuria (PKU) patient. This novel mutation, MlI, disrupts the start codon of the gene by a G to A transition. The compound heterozygote genotype (IVS-lZ/MlI) of this patient predicts tha
