The Syndrome of 17,20 Lyase Deficiency
Open accessAbstract
CONTEXT: Disorders of steroidogenesis have been instrumental in delineating human steroidogenic pathways. Each genetic disorder seemed to correspond to a different steroidogenic activity, helping to identify several enzymes. Beginning in 1972, several patients have been reported as having "17,20 lyase deficiency," but there have been inconsistent genetic findings. OBJECTIVE: This manuscript reviews the biochemistry, genetics, and clinical disorders of 17,20 lyase activity, which converts 21-carbon precursors of glucocorticoids to 19-carbon precursors of sex steroids. FINDINGS: A single enzyme, cytochrome P450c17, catalyzes both 17α-hydroxylase activity and 17,20 lyase activity. The 17,20 lyase activity is especially sensitive to the activities of the accessory proteins P450 oxidoreductase and cytochrome b(5). The first cases of genetically and biochemically proven 17,20 lyase deficiency were reported in 1997, in which specific P450c17 mutations were identified that lost 17,20 lyase activity but not 17α-hydroxylase activity when assayed in vitro. Subsequent work identified other P450c17 mutations and mutations in the genes encoding P450 oxidoreductase and cytochrome b(5). Recently, the initially reported cases from 1972 were found to carry mutations in two aldo-keto reductases, AKR1C2 and AKR1C4. These AKR1C isozymes catalyze 3α-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase activity in the so-called "backdoor pathway" by which the fetal testis produces dihydrotestosterone without the intermediacy of testosterone. CONCLUSIONS: 17,20 Lyase deficiency should be considered a syndrome with multiple causes, and not a single disease. Study of this very rare disorder has substantially advanced our understanding of the pathways, mechanisms, and control of androgen synthesis. Mutations in other, as-yet unidentified genes may also cause this phenotype.

“Thus, the regulation of 17,20-lyase activity, and consequently of androgen production, depends on factors that facilitate the flow of electrons to P450c17: high concentrations of POR, the presence of b5, and serine phosphorylation of P450c17”

In the citing paper
“Thus, b5 deficiency is an important cause of 17,20-lyase deficiency that does not appear to affect cortisol synthesis, whereas specific P450c17 mutations and the one reported POR mutation that presented as 17,20-lyase deficiency [ 64 ] may have residual cortisol synthesis”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
