Genes affected
CYP21A2 (HGNC:2600): (cytochrome P450 family 21 subfamily A member 2) This gene encodes a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily of enzymes. The cytochrome P450 proteins are monooxygenases which catalyze many reactions involved in drug metabolism and synthesis of cholesterol, steroids and other lipids. This protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum and hydroxylates steroids at the 21 position. Its activity is required for the synthesis of steroid hormones including cortisol and aldosterone. Mutations in this gene cause congenital adrenal hyperplasia. A related pseudogene is located near this gene; gene conversion events involving the functional gene and the pseudogene are thought to account for many cases of steroid 21-hydroxylase deficiency. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency Pathogenic:5
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpFeb 20, 2023Variant summary: CYP21A2 c.332_339delGAGACTAC (p.Gly111ValfsX21) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant was absent in 246380 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.332_339delGAGACTAC has been reported in the literature in multiple compound heterozygous and homozygous individuals affected with Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (Wilson_2007, Milacic_2015). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Functional studies report experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function and results in null activity based on in vitro studies. Five ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite this variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoApr 07, 2023The c.332_339del (p.Gly111Valfs*21) (also known as c.332_339del8 (G110del8nt)) variant alters the translational reading frame of the CYP21A2 mRNA and causes the premature termination of CYP21A2 protein synthesis. This pathogenic variant is associated with salt wasting CAH (PMIDs: 2827462 (1988), 23359698 (2013), and 25227725 (2014)). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAthena DiagnosticsApr 07, 2023This variant is expected to result in the loss of a functional protein. Frequency data for this variant in the general population cannot be distinguished from that of the CYP21P pseudogene, and are therefore uninformative in assessment of variant pathogenicity. In multiple individuals, this variant has been seen in trans with other recessive pathogenic variants in CYP21A2, suggesting this variant is also pathogenic. In some published literature, this variant is referred to as c.329_336del, g.707_714del, p.Gly110fs, or as the 8 bp deletion in exon 3. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 31, 2022This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gly111Valfs*21) in the CYP21A2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in CYP21A2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10857554). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases (gnomAD) is considered unreliable due to the presence of homologous sequence, such as pseudogenes or paralogs, in the genome. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with classic salt-wasting, simple virilizing, and non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency (PMID: 7749410, 8081391, 23359698, 25227725, 26804566). This variant is also known as 706del8, 707_714del8, E3del8bp, c.711_718delGAGACTAC. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 12164). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
