[ 1 ] - Identifying Variable Number of Tandem Repeat Alleles in Phenylalanine Hydroxylase Gene in Patients with Phenylketonuria in Golestan Province, Iran
Background and Objective: Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a metabolic disorder that is caused by mutations in the phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) gene. The multiplicity of mutations in the PAH gene of PKU leads to the cases, in which the pathogenic mutation cannot be detected. In these cases, the variable number of tandem repeat (VNTR), which is the polymorphic marker associated with the PAH gene, is ...
