Abstract excerpt
Disseminated superficial porokeratosis (DSP) is an autosomal dominant epidermal keratinization disorder. The genetic basis for DSP has not been clearly elucidated. We previously mapped the locus for DSP to a large region (5.7 Mb) at 18p11.3 in a four-generation Chinese family with DSP, but no gene responsible for porokeratosis has been identified to date. To narrow the critical region for DSP, thereby...
