We have investigated 68 unrelated 21-hydroxylase deficient Danish patients, representing 136 alleles, and determined the mutational spectrum of the CYP21 gene. The most frequent mutations detected were deletion of CYP21 and the splice mutation in intron 2 (I2-splice). Segregation analysis showed evi
## Communicated by Mark Paalman Phenylketonuria (PKU) is an important error of amino acid metabolism which results in most patients from phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) deficiency. PKU displays a marked genotypic heterogeneity both within and between different populations. The aim of this study was
A study of the galactose-1-phosphate uridyltransferase (GALT) gene from 37 unrelated galactosemia families is reported here. A total of 16 sequence variations in eleven mutated alleles was found. The two most common molecular defects were the mutations Q188R (46.0%) and K285N (25.7%). Six novel muta
