Summary
This region is known to undergo non-allelic homologous recombination (NAHR) with a similar low-copy repeat region, the CYP11B2 recombination region, located about 34 kb centromere-distal to this region, in direct orientation on the reference genome. Duplications and deletions of the intervening sequence as a result of NAHR between these recombination regions have been observed. Duplications can result in a chimeric CYP11B1-CYP11B2 gene, and is a cause of familial hyperaldosteronism type I (FH-1), an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by an overproduction of aldosterone, causing hypertension. The chimeric CYP11B1-CYP11B2 gene displays aldosterone synthase activity that is regulated by adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) rather than angiostensin II. This disorder is also known as glucocorticoid-remediable aldosteronism (GRA) since it can be treated by administering glucocorticoids. NAHR events between this region and the CYP11B2 recombination region can also result in deletions of the intervening sequence, and formation of a CYP11B2-CYP11B1 chimeric gene, and can be a cause of 11-beta-hydroxylase congenital adrenal hyperplasia (11beta-OH CAH), an autosomal recessive disorder. The CYP11B2-CYP11B1 chimera is regulated by angiotensin II and potassium, instead of ACTH. HapMap data indicates that there is a slight elevation in meiotic recombination frequencies in this region.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
