Molecular defects of the androgen receptor
@article{McPhaul1999MolecularDO, title={Molecular defects of the androgen receptor}, author={M. J. McPhaul}, journal={The Journal of Steroid Biochemistry and Molecular Biology}, year={1999}, volume={69}, pages={315-322} }
Defects of the androgen receptor cause a wide spectrum of abnormalities of phenotypic male development, ranging from individuals with mild defects of virilization to those with complete female phenotypes. In parallel with this phenotypic spectrum, a large number of different mutations have been identified that alter the synthesis or functional activity of the receptor protein. In many instances, the genetic mutations identified lead to an absence of the intact, full-length receptor protein… CONTINUE READING
