WebPH gene in classical phenylketonuria Genomic DNAs were isolated from two PKU cell lines obtained from the Human Mutant Cell Repository (GM937 and GM2406) and from two … WebIn about 20-30% of phenylketonuria (PKU) patients, phenylalanine (Phe) levels can be controlled by cofactor 6R-tetrahydrobiopterin (BH(4)) administration. The phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) genotype has a predictive value concerning BH(4)-response and therefore a correct assessment of the mutation molecular pathology is important.
Phenylketonuria: translating research into novel therapies
WebPhenylketonuria is an autosomal recessive human genetic disease caused by mutations in the phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) gene. In the present work we have used different expression systems to reveal folding defects of the PAH protein caused by phenylketonuria mutations L348V, S349L, and V388M. The amount of mutant proteins and/or the residual … Web26. okt 2024 · The invention provides a phenylketonuria detection kit, which comprises a reagent for detecting at least the following mutation sites of a PAH gene: c.728G > A, c.611A > G (5.58%), c.1068C > A, c.1238G > C, c.442-1G > A, c.1197A > T, c.721C > T, c.331C > T, c.842+2T > A, c.194T > C; the invention also relates to a detection kit for phenylketonuria … cfglayout
