Novel transglutaminase 1 mutations in patients affected by lamellar ichthyosis [PDF]
Lamellar Ichthyosis (LI) is a form of congenital ichthyosis that is caused by mutations in the TGM1 gene that encodes for the transglutaminase 1 (TG1) enzyme. Functional inactivation of TG1 could be due to mutations, deletion or insertions. In this study,

Phenotypic diversity of the recurrent p.Val379Leu missense mutation of the TGM1 gene
Autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis type 1 (ARCI1), a clinically heterogeneous group of keratinization disorders, develops due to mutations in the transglutaminase 1 (TGM1) gene.

A distal region of the human TGM1 promoter is required for expression in transgenic mice and cultured keratinocytes [PDF]
BackgroundTGM1(transglutaminase 1) is an enzyme that crosslinks the cornified envelope of mature keratinocytes. Appropriate expression of the TGM1 gene is crucial for proper keratinocyte function as inactivating mutations lead to the debilitating skin ...
