Identification of Genetic Locus for Disseminated Superficial Actinic Porokeratosis / 中华皮肤科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To identify the genetic locus for disseminated superficial actinic porokeratosis(DSAP).Methods Genome DNA was extracted from the whole blood of the family members of a pedigree of DSAP.Genotyping on chromosome12q that had been identified was performed by using7microsatellite mark-ers to scan the family members of DSAP and analysed with LINKAGE(5.1Version).Results A maximum2-point lod score of5.15with marker D12S79at a recombination fraction(?)=0.00was found.Conclusion Our study supports that DSAP gene localizes at the long arm of chromosome12,which was first reported in the literature.
