Hyperphenylalaninemia (HPA) may be caused by deficiency of phenylalanine hydroxylase or tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4), the essential cofactor for the aromatic amino acid hydroxylases. 6-Pyruvoyl-tetrahydropterin synthase (PTPS) deficiency is a major cause of BH4 deficient HPA. In this study, seven singl

The enzyme 6-Pyruvoyl-tetrahydropterin synthase (PTS) deficiency is the major cause of BH 4 -deficient HPA. The frequency of BH 4 -deficient HPA was estimated to be around 30% among Chinese HPA population in Taiwan, which is much higher than that in Caucasian population (1.5-2% of HPA). Approximatel
