Identification of novel mutation in cathepsin C gene causing Papillon-Lefèvre Syndrome in Mexican patients.

BMC medical genetics | 2013

Papillon-Lefèvre Syndrome (PLS) is a type IV genodermatosis caused by mutations in cathepsin C (CTSC), with a worldwide prevalence of 1-4 cases per million in the general population. In México, the prevalence of this syndrome is unknown, and there are few case reports.
