Abstract excerpt
Harlequin ichthyosis (HI) is the most severe form of recessive congenital ichthyosis, and is frequently lethal. We describe a family with prenatal diagnosis of HI in two siblings. We applied genomic capture and massively parallel sequencing to detect all mutations in 20 genes, including ABCA12, with inherited mutations that predispose to congenital ichthyosis. Sequence analysis of the ABCA12 gene identified two...
