Phenylketоnuriа (PKU) is the result оf а single mutаtiоn in the gene that codes for an enzyme called phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH). Without this enzyme working properly, the body cannot remove excess phenylalanine from cells and incorporate it into needed proteins and other molecules. While phenylalanine is an important amino acid, too much of it can lead to permanent brain damage, with symptoms such as seizures, delayed development, and psychiatric disorders. Fortunately, the normal allele (P) is dominant over the mutated allele (p). If the two parents in the example diagram have 8 children, what proportion of the children are likely to develop the disease, PKU?
