First Case Report of EX3del4765 Mutation in PAH Gene in Asian Population

INTRODUCTION: Phenylketonuria (PKU) is an autosomal recessive inborn error of phenylalanine metabolism, which is caused by mutation in phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) gene. Most of the PAH mutations are missense mutations (67%), which are followed by small or large deletions (13%). CASE PRESENTATION...

description INTRODUCTION: Phenylketonuria (PKU) is an autosomal recessive inborn error of phenylalanine metabolism, which is caused by mutation in phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) gene. Most of the PAH mutations are missense mutations (67%), which are followed by small or large deletions (13%). CASE PRESENTATION: We reported a patient with classic PKU and his parents harboring a large deletion in exon 3 (EX3del4765) of PAH gene. This is the first case report of EX3del4765 in Asian patients with PKU. CONCLUSIONS: This finding may help improve early detection, differential diagnosis, genetic counseling, and even treatment of patients with PKU.
