Molecular Genotyping in Brazilian Patients with the Classical and Nonclassical Forms of 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency1
Abstract
The aim of our study was to determine, by allele-specific PCR, the frequency of point mutations in 130 Brazilian patients with the classical and nonclassical forms of 21-hydroxylase deficiency and to correlate genotype with phenotype. The most frequent mutations were 12 splice (41.8% in salt wasting), I172N (32.6% in simple virilizing), and V281L (40.2% in late onset form). The frequency of the 9 most common point mutations was similar to that reported for other countries, except for Del 8 nt and Cluster, which were less frequent in the classical form. Rarer mutations such as P453S, G291S, I7 splice, W405X, R483P, and R483-->frameshift were rarely found or were absent. The 93 fully genotyped patients were classified into 3 mutation groups, based on the degree of enzymatic activity (group A, <2%; group B, approximately 2%, and group C, >18%). In group A, 62% of the cases presented the salt wasting form; in group B, 96% the simple virilizing form; and in group C, 88% the late onset form. We diagnosed 80% of the affected alleles after screening for large rearrangements and 15 point mutations. The absence of previously described mutations in 20% of the affected alleles suggests the presence of new mutations in our population.

In the citing paper
“The abovementioned high degree of homology and tandem configuration make this region particularly prone to meiotic misalignment, which fosters recurrent recombination through unequal crossover and gene conversion. These processes constitute the predominant mechanisms underlying pathogenic variants in 21-OHD (16–19).”

“Overall, 90–95% of pathogenic CYP21A2 variants arise from intergenic recombination between the active gene and its pseudogene within the RCCX module.”

In the citing paper
“Functional in vitro studies have allowed classification of CYP21A2 pathogenic variants into four groups based on residual enzymatic activity: group 0 (null, 0%), group A (<2%), group B (3-7%), and group C (20-60%), as summarized in Table 1 (18, 31, 48–50).”

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.
