ADAR1 splicing mutation leading to dyschromatosis hereditaria in a Caucasian patient

Abstract

Dyschromatosis symmetrica hereditaria (DSH, OMIM 127400) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder characterized by hypo-and hyperpigmented macules on the dorsal aspects of hands and feet and freckle-like macules on the face(1). Histologically, there is an increase in epidermal melanin pigment in the hyperpigmented area and with normally structured melanosomes, together with an absence of melanin pigment in hypopigmented macules. The disease is known to be caused by mutations in the adenosine deaminase, RNA-specific (ADAR) gene (Miyamura et al., 2003).
