Background: 17α-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase deficiency (17OHD) is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder caused by a mutation of the cytochrome P450, family 17, subfamily A, polypeptide 1 (CYP17A1). This study reports the case of a 22-year-old Chinese patient (46, XY) with 17OHD and a unilateral adrenal space-occupying lesion. Methods: The patient underwent serological, radiographic, genetic, and molecular analyses including whole-genome exome sequencing through high-throughput sequencing (HTS) technology to analyze the genetic conditions of both the patient and her parents. Additionally, chromosomal karyotype analysis was performed. The impact of the novel mutation on protein conformation was investigated by examining the three-dimensional structure of human CYP17A1 using the SWISS-MODEL website tool (PDB code 3RUK). Results: The patient had a chromosomal karyotype 46, XY, and presented with hypertension, hypokalemia, and male pseudohermaphroditism. Furthermore, decreased levels of testosterone, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate, and estradiol, along with increased levels of progesterone, luteinizing hormone, and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), were observed. DNA sequencing revealed a homozygous mutation (c.908G>A, p.G303A) in the fifth exon of the CYP17A1. Both parents carried a heterozygous c.908G>A mutation in the same exon, confirming the inheritance of the patient's exonic mutation. Conclusion: For the first time, this study reports a novel homozygous mutation (c.908G>A in the fifth exon) in CYP17A1. Modeling analysis of CYP17A1 suggested that the substitution of glycine with aspartic acid at position 303 induces alterations in the number, structure, and electrostatic potential of the protein's local binding sites. The p.G303A mutation may possess pathogenic properties. Our study expands the mutation spectrum of CYP17A1.
