Linkage of epidermolysis bullosa simplex to keratin gene loci.

Abstract

Epidermolysis bullosa simplex (EBS) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterised by intraepidermal blistering of the skin. Two families with Weber-Cockayne EBS have been analysed for linkage to keratin gene loci. In the first family, linkage was found to chromosome 17 markers flanking the keratin 14 gene (D17S74: Zmax = +2.45, theta = 0.10; COL1A1: Zmax = +0.97, theta = 0.00) and markers near the keratin 5 gene on chromosome 12 were excluded (D12S17: Z less than -2.0, theta = 0.08; COL2A1: Z less than -2.0, theta = 0.13). In contrast, the second family showed linkage to the region containing the keratin 5 gene (D12S17: Zmax = +1.37, theta = 0.08; COL2A1: Zmax = +0.33, theta = 0.15) and was not linked to the keratin 14 gene (D17S74: Z less than -2.0, theta = 0.14). The Weber-Cockayne form of EBS is genetically heterogeneous with linkage to different keratin gene loci.
