TLDR
A coordinated approach to PKU treatment improves long-term outcomes for those with PKU and facilitates the conduct of research to improve diagnosis and treatment, and there are significant gaps in predicting response to treatment.

Genetics of Phenylketonuria: Then and Now.

TL;DR: A greater understanding of the relationships between individual gene variant, residual PAH activity, tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) responsiveness, and the clinical PKU phenotype may increase the potential for individualized management of PKU in future.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Genetic Landscape and Epidemiology of Phenylketonuria

TL;DR: This study shows that large genotype databases enable accurate phenotype prediction, allowing appropriate targeting of therapies to optimize clinical outcome, and suggests a gradient in genotype and phenotype distribution exists across Europe, from classic PKU in the east to mild PK U in the southwest and mild hyperphenylalaninemia in the south.

A simple phenylalanine method for detecting phenylketonuria in large populations of newborn infants.

TL;DR: A new method is described for rapid and economical screening of large numbers of hospital nursery infants for elevation in blood phenylalanine associated with phenylketonuria, and results indicate that a very low rate of "false-positives" will be encountered during screening of the 10,000 or more infants that may be necessary to detect a case of phenyl ketonuria.
