Abstract
- Darier disease (DD) is a rare autosomal dominant skin disorder with characteristic abnormal keratinization and acantholysis. The causative gene, ATP2A2, is located on chromosome 12, and encodes a sarco/endoplasmic reticulum calcium pump ATPase (SERCA2). Two Chinese patients with sporadic DD participated in this study. Genomic sequence analysis identified two novel missense mutations (c.742C>A and c.2098A>G) in the ATP2A2 gene. Our findings provide an additional ATP2A2 mutation causative for DD development, and new lines of evidences for the understanding of genotype-phenotype correlations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
