Isolation and mapping of a C3'H gene (CYP98A49) from globe artichoke, and its expression upon UV-C stress [PDF]

, 2009
Globe artichoke represents a natural source of phenolic compounds with dicaffeoylquinic acids along with their biosynthetic precursor chlorogenic acid (5-caffeoylquinic acid) as the predominant molecules. We report the isolation and characterization of a

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.

Phenylalanine 4-Hydroxylase Contributes to Endophytic Bacterium Pseudomonas fluorescens’ Melatonin Biosynthesis

Frontiers in Genetics, 2021
Melatonin acts both as an antioxidant and as a growth regulatory substance in plants. Pseudomonas fluorescens endophytic bacterium has been shown to produce melatonin and increase plant resistance to abiotic stressors through increasing endogenous ...

In Vivo Studies of Phenylalanine Hydroxylase by Phenylalanine Breath Test: Diagnosis of Tetrahydrobiopterin-Responsive Phenylalanine Hydroxylase Deficiency [PDF]

Pediatric Research, 2004
Tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4)-responsive phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) deficiency is characterized by reduction of blood phenylalanine level after a BH4-loading test. Most cases of BH4-responsive PAH deficiency include mild phenylketonuria (PKU) or mild hyperphenylalaninemia (HPA), but not all patients with mild PKU respond to BH4.

Investigation of five common mutations on Phenylalanine Hydroxylase Gene of Phenylketonuria Patients from Two Provinces in North of Iran

International Journal of Preventive Medicine, 2017
Background: There are more than 500 different mutations on phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) gene that is responsible for phenylketonuria (PKU) diseases and the spectrum of these mutations is varied in different populations. The main clinical manifestation

Phenylalanine Hydroxylase (PAH) Genotyping in PKU Argentine Patients

Journal of Inborn Errors of Metabolism and Screening, 2019
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).

Liver phenylalanine hydroxylase assay [PDF]

Biochemical Medicine, 1976
The first reaction is catalyzed by phenylalanine hydroxylase and the second reaction, which generates the reduced form of pteridine cofactor (biopterin), is catalyzed by dihydropteridine reductase (l-3). A direct assay of phenylalanine hydroxylase can be achieved by supplying optimal concentrations of reduced pteridine cofactor or an analog of the ...
