Comparison of long-read sequencing and MLPA combined with long-PCR sequencing of CYP21A2 mutations in patients with 21-OHD [PDF]
Background21-Hydroxylase deficiency (21-OHD) is caused by mutations in the CYP21A2 gene. Due to the complex structure and the high genetic heterogeneity of the CYP21A2 gene, genetic testing for 21-OHD is currently facing challenges.

A capillary electrophoresis-based assay for carrier screening of the hotspot mutations in the CYP21A2 gene. [PDF]
Molecular genetic analysis of the cytochrome P450 family 21 subfamily A member 2 (CYP21A2) gene is challenging owing to the highly homologous with its pseudogene. A reliable approach for the large-scale population screening of CYP21A2 is required. This study aimed to establish and evaluate a capillary electrophoresis-based assay for hotspot mutation ...

CYP21A2 Gene Analysis in Southern Iranian CAH Patients and a Brief Review of the Mutation Spectrum. [PDF]
Background: CYP21A2 gene mutations are responsible for more than 95% of Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH) disorders with autosomal recessive inheritance. Most of these pathogenic mutations originate from the CYP21A1P, a neighboring pseudogene with 98%

Analysis of the CYP21A2 gene pathogenic variants in CAH patients from Surgut using next-generation sequencing (NGS) [PDF]
Background 21-hydroxylase deficiency is present in 90–95% of cases of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). Eleven major pathogenic variants account for 93% of all identified variants in the CYP21A2 gene in various clinical forms of the disease.

CYP21A2 Intron 2 Genetic Variants Might Be Associated with the Clinical Characteristics of Women with PCOS [PDF]
Aims: Pathogenic variants in the CYP21A2 gene are related to the classic and non-classic forms of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). However, the role of CAH carrier status in the clinical presentation of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is still ...
