The FAH gene is mapped to human chromosome 15q25.1. The encoded protein consists of 419 amino acids and 14 coding exons.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide directed towards the C terminal region of human FAH
Biochem/physiol Actions
FAH (fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase) catalyzes the last step in tyrosine catabolic pathway. FAH deficiency leads to hereditary tyrosinemia type 1. FAH mutations eventually lead to Renal Fanconi Syndrome, due to severe liver cirrhosis and renal tubular acidosis caused by accumulation of toxic metabolites such as fumarylacetoacetate.
FAH is the last enzyme in the tyrosine catabolism pathway. FAH deficiency is associated with Type 1 hereditary tyrosinemia.This gene encodes the last enzyme in the tyrosine catabolism pathway. FAH deficiency is associated with Type 1 hereditary tyrosinemia (HT).

Clinical application of somatic genome editing requires therapeutics that are generalizable to a broad range of patients. Targeted insertion of promoterless transgenes can ensure that edits are permanent and broadly applicable while minimizing risks of off-target integration. In the liver
Biochemical and molecular diagnosis of tyrosinemia type I with two novel FAH mutations in a Hong Kong chinese patient: Recommendation for expanded newborn screening in Hong Kong
Clinical translation of AAV-mediated gene therapy requires preclinical development across different experimental models, often confounded by variable transduction efficiency. Here, we describe a human liver chimeric transgene-free Il2rg-/-/Rag2-/-/Fah-/-/Aavr-/- (TIRFA) mouse model overcoming this translational roadblock, by combining liver humanization with
