Intron 2 Splice Mutation at Cyp21 Gene in Patients with Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia in the Republic of Macedonia
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is an autosomal recessive disorder. In 90-95% of cases it results from mutations in the gene for 21-hydroxylase (CYP21, also termed CYP21A2 and P450c21). The IVS-II-656 (C/A>G) mutation leaves ~2.0% enzyme activity, and comprises 25% of the classic CYP21 deficiency alleles and 51% of alleles in the salt-wasting form. We performed direct molecular diagnosis o...
متن کاملThe Frequency of Eight Common Point Mutations in CYP21 Gene in Iranian Patients with Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia
Background: Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH, the inherited inability to synthesize cortisol) is one of the most common (1 in 10000 to 1 in 15000) autosomal recessive disorders. More than 95% of cases of CAH are caused by 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21-OHD). Females with severe, classic 21-OHD are exposed to excess androgens prenatally and are born with virilized external genitalia. Most pati...
متن کاملMolecular Identification of Intron 2 Splice Mutation and 8bp Deletion in CYP21 Gene for Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH) Patients in Kashmir (North India)
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by alteration in CYP21 gene which ultimately leads to 21-hydroxylase deficiency. The present study aimed at evaluation of 2 common mutations viz, Intron 2 Splice (INT2S) mutation and 8 bp deletions in exon 3 of CYP21 gene and to establish their frequencies in Kashmir population (North India). The mutations were teste...
متن کاملA CYP21A2 gene mutation in patients with congenital adrenal hyperplasia
Objectives: The aim of this study is to determine congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) with the pattern of CYP21A2 gene-mutations in Saudi children. Methods: Between January 2011 and March 2014 at King Fahad Military Complex, Dhahran, Saudi Arabia, we thoroughly examined 11 patients with CAH and 2 asymptomatic individuals with a history of affected siblings. Additionally, we sequenced the full ...
