✦ Synopsis

Congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency is a common autosomal recessive disorder (MIM# 201910) due to mutations in the 21-hydroxylase (CYP21) gene (GDB Accession # M12792). Using our protocol for single strand conformational polymorphism (SSCP) analysis, we have identified two mutations not known to exist in the 21-hydroxylase pseudogene (CYP21P). One mutation involving codon 169, TGC to AC appears to be novel. The 46,XX patient carried the codon 169 mutation on her paternal allele and a large gene deletion/conversion event on her maternal allele. This patient had been referred in the immediate neonatal period for the evaluation of genital ambiguity and had developed hyponatremia and hyperkalemia. The second patient presented with premature pubic hair. She carried R356Q on her maternal allele and V281L on her paternal allele..

In this study we have analyzed the factor IX gene from 84 hemophilia B patients of Spanish origin. It included single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis of all functional regions of the gene and further sequencing of all fragments showing abnormal migration. In 76 patients (90.4%), it

Neurofibromatosis type 1 is a clinically variable disorder caused mostly by small mutations within the NF1 gene on chromosome 17q11.2. We used Single Strand Conformation Polymorphism (SSCP) and radioactive sequencing to screen NF1 exons 28 and 29 from 118 unrelated patients, diagnosed with NF1 accor
