Abstract: | We describe different single-amlno acid aberrations in the DNA-bindingdomain (DBD) of the human androgen receptor (hAR) in three familieswith complete androgen Insensitivity. No additional alterationwas found in the translated portion of each mutant gene. Inone family, an in-frame 3 nt deletion removes codon 581 (or582) and, thereby, one of two phenylalanines that invariablyoccupy adjacent positions in the N-terminal |
