Abstract excerpt
Androgens are critical for male sex differentiation. Their actions are mediated by the androgen receptor (AR). Mutations disrupting AR function result in the androgen insensitivity syndrome (AIS). In this study, we identified in a patient with complete AIS, a novel AR mutation p.R856L. To investigate the functional properties of p.R856L, we performed functional studies. In comparison, we have characterized two...
