Genetic contributions to the phenotype are complex, consisting of documented allelic heterogeneity within the PAH gene. Certain PAH alleles are associated with non-PKU hyperphenylalaninemia and others with PKU. In addition, genes at other loci may influence Phe transport within the brain and the size and metabolic control of the Phe pool. This molecular heterogeneity for PKU results in wide phenotypic heterogeneity, contributing to biochemical individuality. (references) | ||
