Genes affected
DSG4 (HGNC:21307): (desmoglein 4) This gene encodes a member of the desmoglein subgroup of desmosomal cadherins. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate the mature protein. This protein is a transmembrane component of desmosomes and may play a role in cell-cell adhesion in epithelial cells. Mutations in the gene are associated with localized autosomal recessive hypotrichosis and monilethrix, characterized by impaired hair growth. [provided by RefSeq, May 2016]
DSG1-AS1 (HGNC:51115): (DSG1 antisense RNA 1)

Submissions by phenotype

Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsDec 13, 2022The c.18C>A (p.F6L) alteration is located in exon 1 (coding exon 1) of the DSG4 gene. This alteration results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 18, causing the phenylalanine (F) at amino acid position 6 to be replaced by a leucine (L). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
