Use of sapropterin in Mexican patients with yperphenylalaninemia
Hyperphenylalaninemia is caused by deficient enzyme activity of phenylalanine hydroxylase. It was one of the first genetic disorders susceptible to treatment with a natural protein restricted diet for life.

Phenylalanine Hydroxylase Misfolding and Pharmacological Chaperones [PDF]
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a loss-of-function inborn error of metabolism. As many other inherited diseases the main pathologic mechanism in PKU is an enhanced tendency of the mutant phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) to misfold and undergo ubiquitin-dependent degradation. Recent alternative approaches with therapeutic potential for PKU aim at correcting the

Phenylalanine Hydroxylase (PAH) Genotyping in PKU Argentine Patients
Phenylketonuria (PKU, OMIM 261600) is predominantly caused by mutations in the PAH gene. One hundred and three Argentine PKU patients were studied by Sanger sequencing; 101 were completely characterized (90.3% were compound heterozygotes).

Molecular diagnosis of phenylketonuria: From defective protein to disease-causing gene mutation [PDF]
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is the most common inborn error of amino acid metabolism, with an average incidence of 1/10000 in Caucasians. PKU is caused by more than 500 mutations in the phenylalanine hydroxylase gene (PAH) which result in phenylalanine ...
