Popis: Recently, mutations in Adaptor Related Protein Complex 1 Subunit Beta 1 (AP1B1) have been identified as the cause of a new form of syndromic ichthyosis, which is characterized by neonatal onset of ichthyosis, erythroderma and deafness accompanied by failure to thrive and developmental delay.(1,2) In adulthood, keratitis has been diagnosed as well.(1) Based on the observed phenotype and the autosomal-recessive mode of inheritance, the disease has been classified as a keratitis-ichthyosis-deafness syndrome (KIDAR; OMIM:242150). In this letter, we describe an additional case of KIDAR caused by AP1B1 mutations including one novel missense mutation. We also show the molecular consequences of the mutations and define the main features of this new syndrome.
