| Abstract | Background Mal de Meleda is an autosomal recessive palmoplantar keratoderma, with SLURP1 identified as the pathogenic gene responsible. Although over 20 mutations in SLURP1 have been reported, only the mutation c.256G > A (p.G87R) has been detected in Chinese patients. Here, we report a novel heterozygous SLURP1 mutation in a Chinese family. Methods We assessed the clinical manifestations of two Chinese patients with Mal de Meleda and collected specimens from the patients and other family members for whole-exome and Sanger sequencing. We used algorithms (MutationTaster, SIFT, PolyPhen-2, PROVEAN, PANTHER, FATHMM, mCSM, SDM and DUET) to predict the pathogenetic potential of the mutation detected. We also employed AlphaFold2 and PyMOL for protein structure analysis. Results Both patients displayed the typical manifestation of palmoplantar keratoderma. In Proband 1, we detected a novel compound heterozygous mutation (c.243C > A and c.256G > A) in exon 3 of SLURP1. Proband 2 was an adult female born to a consanguineous family and carried a homozygous mutation (c.211C > T). Algorithms indicated both mutations to be probably disease causing. We used AlphaFold2 to predict the protein structure of these mutations and found that they cause instability, as shown by PyMOL. Conclusions Our study identified a novel compound heterozygous mutation (c.243C > A and c.256G > A) in a Chinese patient with Mal de Meleda that has the potential to cause instability in protein structure. Moreover, this study expands on the existing knowledge of SLURP1 mutations and contributes to knowledge of Mal de Meleda. |

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.
