21-hydroxylase deficiency is an autosomal recessive and monogenetic disease due to mutations in
CYP21A gene which on chromosome six. This gene consists of a gene called CYP21A2 and its pseudogene CYP21A1.
** Approximately 70% of CYP21A2 disease is due to gene conversion and micro-deletions in CYP21A1 gen.
** Approximately 25% to 30% are chimeric genes due to large deletions.
** Approximately 1% to 2% of cases are due to de novo mutations because of high variability of the CYP21A2 locus. 
** Chromosome 6 uniparental disomy is rare cause of 21-hydroxylase deficiency with an unknown prevalence.
* Gene mutations that completely inactivate CYP21A2 gene will result in the classical type and salt-wasting subtype.
* Gene mutations that maintain 1–2% of 21-hydroxylase activity will result in classical type and non-saltwasting suntype. These patients have minimal aldosterone production that prevents a neonatal crisis.<ref name="pmid20926536">{{cite journal |vauthors=Finkielstain GP, Chen W, Mehta SP, Fujimura FK, Hanna RM, Van Ryzin C, McDonnell NB, Merke DP |title=Comprehensive genetic analysis of 182 unrelated families with congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency |journal=J.
