Abstract excerpt
Complete androgen insensitivity syndrome is an X-linked inherited disorder caused by mutations in the androgen receptor (AR) gene. Using polymerase chain reaction single-strand DNA conformational polymorphism and DNA sequencing, we identified a novel nonsense mutation in exon 1 of the AR gene in 2 Iranian brothers with complete androgen insensitivity syndrome. Despite a normal 46,XY karyotype, testes, and normal...
