Abstract excerpt
The mutation of a single amino acid in the ligand binding domain of the human androgen receptor (AR) can induce functional abnormalities; for example, in androgen binding or interactions with coregulators. We report here on the structure/function analysis of the ARE709K substitution that is associated with partial androgen insensitivity syndrome. We introduced several mutations at position 709 and tested the...
