Abstract excerpt
Direct DNA sequencing of the steroid 21-hydroxylase gene (CYP21) revealed two novel mutations in two patients with severe congenital adrenal hyperplasia. The nonsense mutation Trp23Stop (TGG --> TGA) was found in a woman with the simple virilizing form of the disease. She was a compound heterozygote, with the previously described Ile173Asn mutation on her other allele. A boy, who developed salt-wasting in the...
