Two previously unidentified mutations at the phenylalanine hydroxylase locus were found during a study of the relationship between genotype and phenotype in phenylketonuria and hyperphenylalaninemia. One mutation eliminates the BamHI site in exon 7 and the other eliminates the HindIII site in exon 1
Mutations in the human phenylalanine hydroxylase gene producing phenylketonuria or hyperphenylalaninemia have now been identified in many patients from various ethnic groups. These mutations all exhibit a high degree of association with specific restriction fragment-length polymorphism haplotypes at
