Additional Information:

Clinical Description OMIM Hatsell et al. (2003) reported a new variant of congenital exfoliative ichthyosis in 2 related Bedouin families. The phenotype shared some features with ichthyosis bullosa of Siemens (IBS; 146800) and annular epidermolytic ichthyosis (607602), and clinical distinction seemed ...
Molecular genetics OMIM In a consanguineous Bedouin kindred with autosomal recessive exfoliative ichthyosis mapping to chromosome 3q21, Blaydon et al. (2011) identified homozygosity for a splice site mutation in the candidate gene CSTA (184600.0001) that segregated with disease in the family ...
