| Research Abstract |
The cause of the inherited skin diseases has been elucidated gradually by means of advanced skills of genetic analyses, however, for a lot of the inherited skin diseases the causative genes has left unknown. We focused on Michelin tire baby syndrome, which is an autosomal recessive congenital skin disease, and investigated the causative gene using linkage analyses. We collected DNA samples from three families of Michelin tire baby syndrome, and we identified a DNA locus D7S2480-D7S515 as a candidate region of the causative gene. We hope a further progress will be made based upon this result.
