Inborn defects in thyroid hormone biosynthesis contribute to nearly half of congenital hypothyroidism (CH) cases in China. The thyroid peroxidase (TPO) mutation is one of the most frequent mutations that results in thyroid dyshormonogenesis. In this study, 35 non-synonymous mutations in 15 TPO sites, including 6 novel mutations, were identified in 230 Chinese patients with CH. The enzyme activity of the mutations in TPO was investigated in vitro, and patients with less than 15% residual enzyme activity showed severe CH, such as mark
