Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is a group of autosomal recessive disorders of adrenal steroidogenesis. Disorders in steroid 21-hydroxylation account for over 95% of patients with CAH. Clinically, the 21-hydroxylase deficiency has been classified in a broad spectrum of clinical forms, ranging from severe or classical, to mild late onset or non-classical.Known allelic variants in the disease causing CYP21A2 gene are spread among different sources.Until recently, most variants reported have been identified in the clinical setting, which presumably bias described variants to pathogenic ones, as those found in the CYPAlleles database. Nevertheless, a large number of variants are being described in massive genome projects, many of which are found in dbSNP, but lack functional implications and/or their phenotypic effect. In this work, we gathered a total of 1,340 GVs in the CYP21A2 gene, from which 899 variants were unique and 230 have an effect on human health, and compiled all this information in an integrated database.We also connected CYP21A2 sequence information to phenotypic effects for all available mutations, including double mutants in cis. Data compiled in the present work could help physicians in the genetic counseling of families affected with 21-hydroxylase deficiency.

NKX2‐5 is a homeodomain transcription factor that plays a crucial role in heart development. It is the first gene where a single genetic variant (GV) was found to be associated with congenital heart diseases in humans. In this study, we carried out a comprehensive survey of NKX2‐5 GVs to build a unified, curated, and updated compilation of all available GVs. We retrieved a total of 1,380 unique GVs. From these, 970 had information on their frequency in the general population and 143 have been linked to pathogenic phenotypes in humans. In vitro effect was ascertained for 38 GVs. The homeodomain had the biggest cluster of pathogenic variants in the protein: 49 GVs in 60 residues, 23 in its third α‐helix, where 11 missense variants may affect protein–DNA interaction or the hydrophobic core. We also pinpointed the likely location of pathogenic GVs in four linear motifs. These analyses allowed us to assign a putative explanation for the effect of 90 GVs. This study pointed to reliable pathogenicity for GVs in helix 3 of the homeodomain and may broaden the scope of functional and structural studies that can be done to better understand the effect of GVs in NKX2‐5 function.
