We report a Chinese patient with Ichthyosis follicularis with atrichia and photophobia (IFAP) syndrome, presenting with the classic triad of follicular ichthyosis, alopecia, and photophobia, along with painful palmoplantar keratoderma, recurrent infections, periorificial keratotic plaques, nail dystrophy, and pachyonychia. Whole-exome sequencing identified an intronic variant (NM_015884.3: exon7:c.970+5G>A) in the MBTPS2 gene, which was confirmed to segregate with phenotype in the family. cDNA sequencing showed that the variant introduced a new splice donor site, leading to partial skipping of exon 7 (r.951_970del). An in vitro mini-gene assay demonstrated abnormal splicing of exon 7. This study highlights the importance of validation assays in determining the pathogenicity of intronic variants in MBTPS2.
Ichthyosis follicularis with atrichia and photophobia (IFAP) syndrome is a rare genodermatosis characterized by a classic triad of follicular ichthyosis, alopecia, and photophobia. We report a Chinese patient displaying features of IFAP triad along with painful palmoplantar keratoderma, recurrent infections, periorificial keratotic plaques, nail dystrophy, and pachyonychia. Whole-exome sequencing revealed an intronic variant (NM_015884.3: exon7:c.970+5G>A) in the gene MBTPS2. Sanger sequencing confirmed that the variant segerated with phenotype in the family. Sequencing of cDNAs derived from the patient indicated the variant introduced a new splice donor site, leading to partial skipping of exon 7 (r.951_970del). An in vitro mini-gene assay also revealed abnormal splicing of exon 7. This study presents a case complicated with X-linked IFAP syndrome and Olmsted syndrome, and highlights the significance of using validation assays to identify the pathogenicity of intronic variants in MBTPS2.
