Phenylketonuria (PKU): A problem solved?
Molecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports, 2016 Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a rare metabolic disorder characterized by impaired conversion of phenylalanine (Phe) to tyrosine. If left untreated, the resultant accumulation of excess blood Phe can cause physiological, neurological, and intellectual ...

Central precocious puberty in a 3 year-old girl with Phenylketonuria: a rare association? [PDF]
, 2014 Background Central precocious puberty (CPP) and phenylketonuria (PKU) are two rare conditions, the latter being the rarer. To date, only one case featuring both these conditions has been reported, and hyperphenylalaninemia was assumed triggering CPP.

Mechanism of phenylalanine regulation of phenylalanine hydroxylase.
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1990 The mechanism of phenylalanine regulation of rat liver phenylalanine hydroxylase was studied. We show that phenylalanine "activates" phenylalanine hydroxylase, converting it from an inactive to active form, by binding at a true allosteric regulatory site.

Phenylalanine hydroxylase variants interact with the co‐chaperone DNAJC12
Human Mutation, 2019 DNAJC12, a type III member of the HSP40/DNAJ family, has been identified as the specific co‐chaperone of phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) and the other aromatic amino acid hydroxylases.

Use of sapropterin in Mexican patients with yperphenylalaninemia
Acta Pediátrica de México, 2014 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.

Mutations of the phenylalanine hydroxylase gene in Iranian patients with phenylketonuria. [PDF]
Springerplus, 2015 Phenylketonuria (PKU) is an autosomal recessive disease which results from mutations in the phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) gene. The aim of this study was the identification of sixteen different mutations in Iranian patients with hyperphenylalaninemia ...

Unbalance between Excitation and Inhibition in Phenylketonuria, a Genetic Metabolic Disease Associated with Autism [PDF]
, 2017 Phenylketonuria (PKU) is the most common genetic metabolic disease with a well-documented association with autism spectrum disorders. It is characterized by the deficiency of the phenylalanine hydroxylase activity, causing plasmatic hyperphenylalaninemia
