abstract：:A single-base substitution in the coding region of the androgen receptor (AR) gene caused complete androgen insensitivity in a patient with 46,XY karyotype. The mutation was a T-to-G transition in exon 6 and changed the codon 807 from ATG (methionine) to AGG (arginine) in the hormone-binding domain of the protein. The...

abstract：:Menkes disease is an X-linked recessive copper deficiency disorder caused by mutations in the ATP7A (MNK) gene. The MNK gene encodes a copper-transporting P-type ATPase, MNK, which is localized predominantly in the trans-Golgi network (TGN). The MNK protein relocates to the plasma membrane in cells exposed to elevated...
