Abstract excerpt
Untargeted, next generation sequencing approaches have provided deep insights into genetic events that result in unopposed steroidogenesis from the adrenal cortex. In particular, somatic mutations in the gene encoding the catalytic subunit α of protein kinase A (PKA) (PRKACA) were identified independently by several groups as the most frequently altered gene in cortisol-producing adenomas. Detailed functional...
