medicine | PHEX is the key enzyme in the pathogenesis of X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets. Mutational analysis of the PHEX gene reveals three point mutations and two amino acid changes which may be rare polymorphisms, as well as a small deletion, found as a mosaic in the affected patient. Early diagnosis of possibly affected children by molecular genetic analysis is of great importance because it allows early therapeutic intervention before manifestation of skeletal deformities occurs, thereby improving the clinical outcomes | Homo sapiens |
