Genes affected
GJB4 (HGNC:4286): (gap junction protein beta 4) This gene encodes a transmembrane connexin protein that is a component of gap junctions. Mutations in this gene have been associated with erythrokeratodermia variabilis, progressive symmetric erythrokeratoderma and hearing impairment. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2009]
SMIM12 (HGNC:25154): (small integral membrane protein 12) Predicted to be integral component of membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
