We report a Chinese family in which two family members were diagnosed to have
steroid 5alpha-reductase
2 deficiency. The proband was an 8 year-old boy presenting with isolated micropenis. Mutational analysis revealed a homozygous mutation in exon 4 of the SRD5A2 gene, changing codon 227 from CGA to
CAA
, i.e. R227Q. The paternal granduncle of the proband has incomplete virilization in adulthood. Besides having the mutation R227Q, he has another mutation in exon 5 of the SRD5A2 gene, changing codon 246 from CGG to CAG, i.e. R246Q. To our knowledge, this is the first reported Chinese family diagnosed with
steroid 5alpha-reductase
2 deficiency with identified molecular defects.
