Case report: Identification of a frameshift mutation in GC enrichment and the GCC repeat region of the androgen insensitivity receptor (AR) gene in a patient with complete androgen insensitivity syndrome by whole-exome sequencing (WES) combined with specific PCR and deep sequencing

Background: Androgen insensitivity syndrome (AIS) is an X-linked recessive hereditary disease caused due to a reduced or absent function of the androgen receptor (AR) protein encoded by the AR gene (OMIM-Gene# 313,700). Genetic testing is important in the diagnosis, clinical management, and preventi...
