Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To establish the type and frequency of mutations causing late onset 21-hydroxylase deficiency and associated clinical and biochemical phenotypes and to compare these findings to those from heterozygotes and homozygotes for classical 21-hydroxylase deficiency. DESIGN: Analysis of the 21-hydroxylase genes by DNA amplification and mutation detection. Measurement of serum 17-hydroxyprogesterone following...
