A Novel Mutation in the 1A Domain of Keratin 2e in Ichthyosis Bullosa of Siemens [PDF]
Ichthyosis bullosa of Siemens (IBS) is a rare autosomal dominant skin disorder with clinical features similar to epidermolytic hyperkeratosis (EHK). Both diseases have been linked to the type II keratin cluster on chromosome 12q. Hyperkeratosis and blister formation are relatively mild in IBS compared with EHK, and the lysis of keratinocytes is ...

A New Keratin 2e Mutation in Ichthyosis Bullosa of Siemens
Ichthyosis bullosa of Siemens (IBS) is a rare autosomal dominant skin condition with features similar to epidermolytic hyperkeratosis (EH). Clinical symptoms are characterized by mild hyperkeratosis with an acral distribution. Histology shows epidermolysis of upper spinous and granular cells, whereas ultrastructurally, tonofilaments form perinuclear ...

Mild recessive epidermolytic hyperkeratosis associated with a novel keratin 10 donor splice-site mutation in a family of Norfolk terrier dogs [PDF]
Background Epidermolytic hyperkeratosis in humans is caused by dominant-negative mutations in suprabasal epidermal keratins 1 and 10. However, spontaneous keratin mutations have not been confirmed in a species other than human.

Ichthyosis Bullosa of Siemens Is Caused by Mutations in the Keratin 2e Gene
Ichthyosis bullosa of Siemens is a blistering disorder with autosomal dominant inheritance. The disease resembles bullous congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma but is less severe. Keratins K1 and K10 have been implicated in bullous congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma. Linkage analysis pointed to the involvement of a keratin type II gene (12q11-13) in
