Additional Information:

Description: (OMIM) Xeroderma pigmentosum is a genetically heterogeneous autosomal recessive disorder characterized by increased sensitivity to sunlight with the development of carcinomas at an early age. Some patients develop neurologic symptoms or a more severe clinical phenotype known as de ...
Clinical Description OMIM Ruder (cited by Cockayne, 1933) observed the condition in 7 out of 13 sibs.

Kanda et al. (1990) indicated that most patients with group A XP, the most common form in Japan, show involvement of the ...

Genotype-Phenotype Correlations OMIM States et al. (1998) performed a mutation analysis on XPA cell lines from 19 American and European patients. Most mutations were deletions and splice site mutations, observed previously in other XPA patients in exon 3, intron 3, or ...
Molecular genetics OMIM Most Japanese patients with XP group A were found by Tanaka et al. (1990) to have a splice site mutation in the XPA gene (611153.0001). In these patients, reduced amount of mRNA of reduced size was found on ...
