Mutational spectrum of congenital adrenal hyperplasia in Slovenian patients: a novel Ala15Thr mutation and Pro30Leu within a larger gene conversion associated with a severe form of the disease.

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To analyse the mutational spectrum, the associated haplotypes and the genotype-phenotype correlation, and to design a reliable and rational approach for CYP21 mutation detection in Slovenian congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) patients. DESIGN: Molecular analysis of the CYP21 gene was performed in 36 CAH patients and 79 family members. METHODS: Southern blotting, sequence-specific PCR amplification...
