A novel deletion mutation in the ATP6V0A2 gene in an Iranian patient affected by autosomal recessive cutis laxa.

Abstract excerpt

Cutis laxa (CL) can be caused by mutations in a number of genes. Cutis laxa with autosomal recessive inheritance due to mutations in several genes, including mutations in the ATP6V0A2 gene, causes autosomal recessive cutis laxa type 2A (ARCL2A). The ATP6V0A2 gene encodes the a2 subunit in the V-ATPases pump. The V-ATPases are located in the membrane of some organelles, including the Golgi or some vesicles, and...
