High impact information on CYP21

  • Mapping of bovine markers CYP21, PRL, and BOLA DRBP1 by genetic linkage analysis in reference pedigrees [1].
  • Close genetic linkage between DRBP1 and CYP21 in the MHC of cattle [2].
  • Five paternal half sib families of German Angus (GA) (n = 428) and six of German Simmental (GS) (n = 378) including dams were genotyped with 11 microsatellites (INRA132, RM033, BM1815, BM1258, BOLA-DRB1, BM1818, BM1905, BM1443, CYP21, CSSM5 and DYMS1) derived from chromosome 23 [3].
  • HpaII PCR-RFLP within a Bov-A2 element in the promoter of the bovine CYP21 (steroid 21-hydroxylase) gene [4].
 

Biological context of CYP21

  • Marker CYP21 (steroid 21-hydroxylase) on chromosome 23 was associated with an effect of slightly less than half a phenotypic standard deviation and accounted for approximately 4% of phenotypic variation [5].
