Abstract excerpt
Polymorphic genetic variation shows that the genes for human 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases (3 beta-HSD) types I and II are closely linked. The type II mutations A82T, S100N and L173R are associated with male pseudohermaphroditism and A82T is associated, with variable penetrance, with femal...
