Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is an autosomal recessive disease characterized by impaired adrenal steroidogenesis and most often caused by CYP21A2 gene mutations. For the first time, we reported complete spectrum and frequency of CYP21A2 gene mutations in 61 unrelated patients with classical and non-classical CAH from Serbia. METHODS: Direct DNA sequencing of whole CYP21A2 gene and polymerase...
