Identification, by Homozygosity Mapping, of a Novel Locus for Autosomal Recessive Congenital Ichthyosis on Chromosome 17p, and Evidence for Further Genetic Heterogeneity.

Presents a whole-genome scan analysis for further loci for autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis in families from Germany, Turkey and the United Arab Emirates. Characterization of the disorder; Extensive genealogical studies of the disorder; Use of homozygosity mapping for the localization of the gene for the disorder.
