Heterozygous gain of function variant in GUCY1A2 may cause autonomous ovarian hyperfunction.

Our data define a syndromic autonomous ovarian puberty likely due to the activating allele p.(E486D) in GUCY1A2 leading to an increase in cGMP. The overlap with the ovarian symptoms of McCune-Albright syndrome suggests an impact of this cGMP increase on the cAMP pathway in the ovary. Additional cases will be needed to ensure a causal link.
