Abstract excerpt
We investigated 21 affected individuals in two unrelated monilethrix families of Indian origin and identified point mutation (g.4624G>A) in the HTM motif (exon-7) of the KRTHB6 gene in all the affected members leading to E413K change in this basic keratin. The HTM motif of KRTHB1, however, showed previously unreported two allelic variants, one with three novel variations (SNPs) in cis: g.4421insT (intronic);...
