We wondered whether the phenotype of isolated glucocorticoid deficiency had arisen in this child due to tri-allelic inheritance of a heterozygous CYP11A1 change along with the two STAR variants each of which contribute a partial loss-of-function burden that, when combined, is sufficient to cause PAI or if the loss-of-function c.465+1G>A combined with the presumed partial loss-of-function p.(E99K) in STAR could be causative. Here, CYP11A1 is linked to familial glucocorticoid deficiency.
