Abstract excerpt
Pachyonychia congenita (PC) is a genetic disorder of keratin that presents with nail dystrophy, painful palmoplantar keratoderma, and other clinical manifestations. We investigated the genotype‒structurotype‒phenotype correlations seen with mutations in keratin genes (keratin [K]6A, K6B, K6C, K16, K17) and utilized protein structure modeling of high-frequency mutations to examine the functional importance of...
