| Abstract | The MSSE gene predisposes to the development of multiple invasive but self-healing skin tumours (multiple self-healing squamous epitheliomata, MSSE). MSSE (previously named ESS1) was mapped to chromosome 9q by linkage analysis; haplotype analysis in families then suggested a common founder mutation and indicated that the gene lies in the interval D9S1–D9S29 (9q22–q31). Squamous cell carcinomata also develop as one of the complications of xeroderma pigmentosum, and one of the xeroderma pigmentosum genes (XPA) maps within the MSSE interval. We have investigated the hypothesis that a novel dominant mutation in XPA is responsible for MSSE. We screened the entire coding region, 3′ untranslated region (UTR) and 5′UTR of XPA for germline mutations in MSSE families by single-stranded conformation polymorphism analysis and by direct DNA sequencing. No mutations were detected but a novel intragenic polymorphism was identified in the 5′UTR of XPA, in both MSSE-affected and unrelated normal individuals. This XPA polymorphism and nine new polymorphic markers that map in the MSSE region were typed in eleven MSSE families; XPA was excluded as the MSSE gene and the most likely location of MSSE was reduced to the interval between D9S197 and (D9S287, D9S1809). The Patched (PTCH) gene, which is mutated in naevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS or Gorlin syndrome) lies in this interval and all MSSE families have been shown to share a common haplotype at three novel intragenic PTCH polymorphisms. Although no mutation has been detected in MSSE families, PTCH has not been excluded as the MSSE gene. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
