Molecular genetics of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (21‐hydroxylase deficiency): implications for diagnosis, prognosis and treatment

1998-02-01

Abstract excerpt

The molecular genetics of congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21‐hydroxylase deficiency are reviewed. In Sweden, mutation detection based on allele‐specific PCR has been used for genetic diagnosis of this disease since 1993. Around 400 affected 21‐hydroxylase genes have been analysed so far. An update of the spectrum of mutations among the Swedish patients shows that nine common pseudogene‐derived mutations are...
