Notes

rs62508727, also known as c.284_286delTCA and p.Ile95del, represents a mutation in the PAH (phenylketonuria) gene on chromosome 12.

-;TCA

Phenylketonuria mutation carrier; unaffected unless a second PKU mutation is present.

D;I

For 23andMe users this genotype most commonly occurs as the result of a genotyping error in their testing platform. If you were tested by a different company, this is more likely to be accurate. Please contact us if you were tested by another company since we would like to know if there is another company (besides 23andMe) testing this genotype so we can monitor their accuracy too.
