The Pah-R261Q mouse reveals oxidative stress associated with amyloid-like hepatic aggregation of mutant phenylalanine hydroxylase
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is caused by autosomal recessive variants in phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) and can lead to neurotoxicity. Here the authors describe a mouse model of PKU based on a mutation in phenylalanine hydroxylase (R261Q) which replicates traits of this disease and shows a proteostasis d...

Sumario: | Phenylketonuria (PKU) is caused by autosomal recessive variants in phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) and can lead to neurotoxicity. Here the authors describe a mouse model of PKU based on a mutation in phenylalanine hydroxylase (R261Q) which replicates traits of this disease and shows a proteostasis defect and oxidative stress, implying a gain-of-function contribution to the disease phenotype. |
