A novel SMOC1 pathogenic homozygous variant in a fetus with mesomelia of the lower limbs, micrognathia and hypertelorism and an incidental finding of CYP21A2‐related congenital adrenal hyperplasia [PDF]
Trio exome sequencing was performed on a fetus with bilateral mesomelia of the lower limbs with significant angulation of the tibial bones, micrognathia and hypertelorism detected on ultrasound scan at 19 + 0 weeks gestation. The couple is consanguineous.

Background More than 90% of Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH) cases are associated with mutations in the 21-hydroxylase gene (CYP21A2) in the HLA class III area on the short arm of chromosome 6p21.3.

Challenging Molecular Diagnosis of Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH) Due to 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency: Case Series and Novel Variants of CYP21A2 Gene. [PDF]
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is a group of autosomal recessive genetic defects in cortisol synthesis and shows elevated ACTH concentrations, which in turn has downstream effects.

Heterozigose para mutação no gene CYP21A2 considerada como deficiência de 21-hidroxilase na triagem neonatal [PDF]
Steroid 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21-OHD) accounts for more than 90% of congenital adrenal hyperplasia. CAH newborn screening, in general, is based on 17-hydroxyprogesterone dosage (17-OHP), however it is complicated by the fact that healthy preterm ...

INTRODUCTION: Standard dose synacthen stimulation test (SDSST) is a gold standard screening test for evaluating adrenal gland function. Despite studies using SDSST to identify heterozygosity in CYP21A2, the reliability of the test for this purpose is ...

Both positive and negative selection pressures contribute to the polymorphism pattern of the duplicated human CYP21A2 gene. [PDF]
The human steroid 21-hydroxylase gene (CYP21A2) participates in cortisol and aldosterone biosynthesis, and resides together with its paralogous (duplicated) pseudogene in a multiallelic copy number variation (CNV), called RCCX CNV.

Mutation Analysis of the CYP21A2 Gene in the Iranian Population [PDF]
Background: Defects in the CYP21A2 gene cause steroid 21-hydroxylase deficiency, which is the most frequent cause of congenital adrenal hyperplasia. Forty four affected families were investigated to identify the mutation spectrum of the CYP21A2 gene ...
