Abstract excerpt
In a French child with complete androgen insensitivity syndrome and negative receptor-binding, no gross deletion has been found. Using single-strand conformation polymorphism assay, a useful screening method for rapid detection of DNA sequence alterations, and direct DNA sequencing, a G-T nucleotide substitution in exon 5 of the androgen receptor gene at nucleotide 2590 was found. This changed codon 743, glycine...
