Porokeratoses are a heterogeneous group of keratinization disorders. For linear porokeratosis and disseminated superficial actinic porokeratosis, a heterozygous pathogenic germline variant in a mevalonate pathway gene and a postzygotic second hit mutation present in affected skin have been shown to be the patho-genetic mechanism for the development of the lesions. However, the molecular mechanism leading to...
