Unexpected evolutionary proximity of eukaryotic and cyanobacterial enzymes responsible for biosynthesis of retinoic acid and its oxidation [PDF]
Biosynthesis of retinoic acid from retinaldehyde (retinal) is catalysed by an aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) and its oxidation by cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYPs).

Targeting mGlu5 metabotropic glutamate receptors in the treatment of cognitive dysfunction in a mouse model of phenylketonuria [PDF]
We studied group-I metabotropic glutamate (mGlu) receptors in Pah(enu2) (ENU2) mice, which mimic the genetics and neurobiology of human phenylketonuria (PKU), a metabolic disorder characterized, if untreated, by autism, and intellectual disability (ID ...

Functional and structural characterisation of 5 missense mutations of the phenylalanine hydroxylase [PDF]
Phenylketonuria (PKU) and hyperphenylalaninemia (HPA) are a group of genetic disorders predominantly caused by mutations in the phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) gene.

Protein stability and in vivo concentration of missense mutations in phenylalanine hydroxylase
A previous computational analysis of missense mutations linked to monogenic disease found a high proportion of missense mutations affect protein stability, rather than other aspects of protein structure and function.

Fenilketonurija (PKU) jeste retko metaboličko oboljenje koje se nasleđuje autozomalno recesivno. Uzrok PKU su mutacije u genu koji kodira za enzim fenilalanin-hidroksilazu (PAH). U ovom revijskom radu su opisane najznačajnije metode za detekciju mutacija

Mutations of the phenylalanine hydroxylase gene in patients with phenylketonuria in Shanxi, China
The variation in mutations in exons 3, 6, 7, 11 and 12 of the phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) gene was investigated in 59 children with phenylketonuria (PKU) and 100 normal children.
