Differential Inhibition of CYP17A1 and CYP21A2 Activities by the P450 Oxidoreductase Mutant A287P.
P450 oxidoreductase (POR) has a pivotal role in facilitating electron transfer from nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate to microsomal cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes, including the steroidogenic enzymes CYP17A1 and CYP21A2.

Transcript Patterns of Bovine <i>CYP21A2</i> and Its Pseudogene in Adrenal and Ovarian Tissues. [PDF]
Background: The cytochrome P450 family 21 subfamily A member 2 gene (CYP21A2) encodes 21-hydroxylase, a key enzyme in adrenal steroid biosynthesis. Despite its physiological importance, the diversity of CYP21A2 transcript variants and their tissue-specific expression in domestic animals, including cattle, remains largely unexplored. This study aimed to

The prevalence and genotype of 21-hydroxylase deficiency in the Croatian Romani population
ObjectiveCongenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) owing to 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21-OHD) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by pathological variants in the CYP21A2 gene.

Thyroid autoimmunity may exert a subtle influence on ovarian reserve through complex endocrine and immune mechanisms, with age‐specific variation. Although AMH alterations are observed, their clinical relevance for primary ovarian insufficiency, fertility, and treatment outcomes of assisted reproduction remains unclear, highlighting the need for ...

The observational studies confirmed the high prevalence of metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) in patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), but whether this reflects a shared genetic etiology and exists underlying causal relationships remains unknown. Here, we utilized the largest scale cross‐trait analysis from genome‐

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.

From Genomic Fossils to Functional Elements: The Evolving Story of Pseudogenes
This review begins with an introduction, summarizing the research background in pseudogene studies. It then contains three aspects: identification of pseudogenes, detailing their classification and features in metazoan genomes; functional pseudogenes, introducing their reactivation and regulation mechanisms; and pseudogenes’ contribution to species ...
