Abstract excerpt
Hailey-Hailey disease (HHD) is an autosomal dominant monogenic disease that is defective in the ATP2C1 gene. In previous studies, Sanger sequencing was the main method applied to detect mutations in HHD patients, and no mutations in the ATP2C1 gene were found in 12-55% of those reported. The aim of our study was to carry out whole exome sequencing (WES) for the HHD patients in whom efforts to identify mutations...
