Abstract excerpt
Complete gonadal dysgenesis (CGD) is characterized by an incomplete differentiation of the genital organs in a patient with a 46,XY karyotype. It is induced by mutations in the sex-determining region Y (SRY) gene which plays a key role in testis-determining pathways. The aim of this study was to investigate the possible pathogenic nature of a novel SRY mutation (p.Y127H) identified in a 46,XY female patient. To...
