Abstract
⺠Mutations in human POR cause congenital adrenal hyperplasia. ⺠We are reporting a novel 3 amino acid deletion mutation in POR P399_E401del. ⺠POR mutation P399_E401del decreased P450 activities by 60-85%. ⺠Impairment of steroid metabolism may be caused by multiple hits. ⺠Severity of aromatase inhibition is related to degree of in utero virilization.
