Abstract excerpt
A point mutation within exon 7 producing an amino acid coding change and a recognition site for the endonuclease Ncol has been reported in the HLA-Bw47-linked CYP21A pseudogene and some mutant CYP21B (steroid 21-hydroxylase) genes of patients with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). Whether this mutation is deleterious was not demonstrated. We analyzed DNA from various subjects for the presence of the exon 7...
