Molecular Basis of Human Piebaldism
Piebaldism is an autosomal dominant genetic disorder of pigmentation characterized by congenital patches of white skin and hair that lack melanocytes. Piebaldism results from mutations of the KIT proto-oncogene, which encodes the cell-surface receptor transmembrane tyrosine kinase for an embryonic growth factor, Steel factor.
