A total of 33 Italian 21-hydroxylase (21-OH) deficiency families were investigated using a combination of short and long range restriction mapping of the CYP21/C4 gene cluster. The analyses revealed that large-scale length polymorphism in this gene cluster strictly conformed to a compound variable n
We have analysed fifteen classical 21-hydroxylase deficiency families from throughout Southern Ireland and report the serologically defined HLA-A, HLA-B, HLA-Cw, HLA-DR, C4A and C4B polymorphisms that characterize the inferred disease haplotypes. Additionally, we have used a combination of short and
The frequency of 12 different mutations of the steroid 21-hydroxylase gene (CYP21) was investigated in 129 French patients affected by congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) due to steroid 21-hydroxylase deficiency. Eighty-nine percent of the CAH chromosomes were characterized. The most frequent mutat
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency is caused by mutations in the gene CYP21 encoding the enzyme steroid 21-hydroxylase. In addition to deletions, approximately 20 different point mutations have been reported, and still novel mutations are detected. This makes genet
