Keratin 17 mutation in pachyonychia congenita type 2 with early onset sebaceous cysts

Abstract: Mutation in the 1A domain of keratin 17 underlies the affected members' phenotype, PC-2 with early onset sebaceous cysts and late-onset thickened fingernails and toenails. The onset of the cysts is very early in some people within this family and the age at onset of thickened fingernails and toenails is variable within the family, implying the existence of modifying factors.

“…We have identified a novel mutation (N109D) located in the second half of the 1A domain (N25D in the 1A domain) of K17 in a Chinese pedigree with delayed-onset PC-2. To date and including this report, 24 independent mutations have been described in patients with either PC-2 or steatocystoma multiplex Fujimoto et al, 1998;Celebi et al, 1999;Smith et al, 2001;Terrinoni et al, 2001;Wang et al, 2001;Hashiguchi et al, 2002;Feng et al, 2003; www.interfil.org). They were located in the helix initiation 1A domain of K17 (Fig 2).…”

“…There is also a previous report regarding the M88T mutation in K17 in which a sebaceous cyst developed in the second decade of life 13 . There are two reports regarding early onset of the cysts, developing at the age of 1 and 5 years 6,14 . These patients had the heterozygous missense mutations N92S and V102M, respectively.…”

“…31,32 Na do tipo 2, além do engrossamento da lâmina ungueal, ocorrem cistos na puberdade, sendo muitas vezes difícil diferenciar os subtipos na infância. 31 Nessa variante foram descritas mutações na CQ 17 33,34 e posteriormente em uma família na CQ 6b.…”
