Abstract
Palmoplantar keratoderma (PPK) is a heterogeneous group of rare skin diseases characterized by hyperkeratosis on the palms or soles. The subtype isolated punctate PPK is caused by heterozygous variants in AAGAB. We investigated if the variant AAGAB c.370C>T, p.Arg124Ter in patients with punctate PPK in the Region of Southern Denmark represented a founder variant and estimated the age to the most recent common ancestor. We performed haplotype analysis on samples from 20 patients diagnosed with punctate PPK and the AAGAB c.370C>T, p.Arg124Ter variant. Using the Gamma Method, we calculated the years to the most recent common ancestor. We also explored the presence of the variant in other populations through literature and databases (HGMD, ClinVar, and gnomAD). Our analysis revealed a shared haplotype of 3.0 Mb, suggesting shared ancestry. The ancestral haplogroup was estimated to an age of 12.1 generations (CI: 4.9-20.3) equivalent to approximately 339 years (CI: 137-568). This study confirms that the frequently observed variant AAGAB c.370C>T, p.Arg124Ter in punctate PPK among patients in the Region of Southern Denmark is caused by a founder variant. We recommend testing for the variant as initial screening in our region and potentially for all Danish patients presenting with punctate PPK.

Orphanet J Rare Dis 2023; 18:290. [PMID: 37705065 PMCID: PMC10500882 DOI: 10.1186/s13023-023-02862-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2023] [Accepted: 08/20/2023] [Indexed: 09/15/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND An association between punctate palmoplantar keratoderma type 1 (PPPK1) and malignancy has been proposed for decades. Some authors suggest that individuals with PPPK1 should undergo screening for various types of malignancies while others caution that an association is not well-established. In this systematic review, we summarized and evaluated the current evidence for a possible association between PPPK1 and malignancy. METHODS The review was conducted along PRISMA guidelines. The search used Embase, MEDLINE, Scopus, and the Human Gene Mutation Database up to March 2022. All studies reporting on individuals with the diagnosis of PPPK1 with or without history of malignancy were included. Two authors screened for eligible studies, extracted predefined data, and performed a quality assessment. RESULTS Of 773 studies identified, 45 were included. Most studies were reports on single families (24 of 45 studies) or multiple families (10 of 45 studies). The number of index cases with PPPK1 across all included studies was 280, and when family members reported with PPPK1 were added, a total of 817 individuals were identified. Overall, 23 studies reported on individuals with PPPK1 with a history of malignancy, whereas 22 studies reported on individuals with PPPK1 without a history of malignancy. Although the extracted data were not considered to be of sufficient quality to synthesize and answer our research question, the review did not confirm an association between PPPK1 and malignancy. CONCLUSION This review shows that there is a lack of well-designed studies on this topic to conclude whether individuals with PPPK1 have an increased risk of malignancy. Based on the present literature, however, we could not confirm an association between PPPK1 and malignancy and find it highly questionable if patients with PPPK1 should be offered surveillance for malignancies.

Abstract
Assembly of protein complexes is facilitated by assembly chaperones. Alpha and gamma adaptin-binding protein (AAGAB) is a chaperone governing the assembly of the heterotetrameric adaptor complexes 1 and 2 (AP1 and AP2) involved in clathrin-mediated membrane trafficking. Here, we found that before AP1/2 binding, AAGAB exists as a homodimer. AAGAB dimerization is mediated by its C-terminal domain (CTD), which is critical for AAGAB stability and is missing in mutant proteins found in patients with the skin disease punctate palmoplantar keratoderma type 1 (PPKP1). We solved the crystal structure of the dimerization-mediating CTD, revealing an antiparallel dimer of bent helices. Interestingly, AAGAB uses the same CTD to recognize and stabilize the γ subunit in the AP1 complex and the α subunit in the AP2 complex, forming binary complexes containing only one copy of AAGAB. These findings demonstrate a dual role of CTD in stabilizing resting AAGAB and binding to substrates, providing a molecular explanation for disease-causing AAGAB mutations. The oligomerization state transition mechanism may also underlie the functions of other assembly chaperones.

Abstract
Palmoplantar keratoderma (PPK) is an umbrella term for a group of heterogeneous disorders, acquired or inherited, that are characterized by hyperkeratosis of palmar and/or plantar surfaces. Punctate PPK (PPPK) has been shown to have an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance. It is linked with two loci on chromosomes 8q24.13-8q24.21 and 15q22-15q24. In type 1 PPPK, also known as Buschke-Fischer-Brauer disease, loss-of-function mutations in either the AAGAB or the COL14A1 genes have been associated with the disorder. We report here the clinical and genetic features of a patient with findings most consistent with type 1 PPPK.

Abstract
Adaptor protein 4 (AP-4) is a heterotetrameric complex composed of ε, β4, μ4 and σ4 subunits that mediates export of a subset of transmembrane cargos, including autophagy protein 9A (ATG9A), from the trans-Golgi network (TGN). AP-4 has received particular attention in recent years because mutations in any of its subunits cause a complicated form of hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP or SPG) referred to as "AP-4-deficiency syndrome." The identification of proteins that interact with AP-4 has shed light on the mechanisms of AP-4-dependent cargo sorting and distribution within the cell. However, the mechanisms by which the AP-4 complex itself is assembled have remained unknown. Herein, we report that the alpha- and gamma-adaptin-binding protein (AAGAB, also known as p34) binds to and stabilizes the AP-4 ε-and σ4 subunits, thus promoting complex assembly. The importance of this binding is underscored by the observation that AAGAB-knockout cells exhibit reduced levels of AP-4 subunits and accumulation of ATG9A at the TGN like those in cells, mice, or patients with mutations in AP-4-subunit genes. These findings demonstrate that AP-4 assembly is not spontaneous but AAGAB-assisted, thus contributing to the understanding of an adaptor protein complex that is critically involved in development of the central nervous system.

Abstract
Multimeric cargo adaptors such as AP2 play central roles in intracellular membrane trafficking. We recently discovered that the assembly of the AP2 adaptor complex, a key player in clathrin-mediated endocytosis, is a highly organized process controlled by alpha- and gamma-adaptin-binding protein (AAGAB, also known as p34). In this study, we demonstrate that besides AP2, AAGAB also regulates the assembly of AP1, a cargo adaptor involved in clathrin-mediated transport between the trans-Golgi network and the endosome. However, AAGAB is not involved in the formation of other adaptor complexes, including AP3. AAGAB promotes AP1 assembly by binding and stabilizing the γ and σ subunits of AP1, and its mutation abolishes AP1 assembly and disrupts AP1-mediated cargo trafficking. Comparative proteomic analyses indicate that AAGAB mutation massively alters surface protein homeostasis, and its loss-of-function phenotypes reflect the synergistic effects of AP1 and AP2 deficiency. Taken together, these findings establish AAGAB as an assembly chaperone for both AP1 and AP2 adaptors and pave the way for understanding the pathogenesis of AAGAB-linked diseases.

J Dermatol 2021; 48:1926-1930.

Abstract
Punctate palmoplantar keratoderma type 1 (PPPK1) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder characterized by hyperkeratotic papules on the palms and soles. In 2012, heterozygous loss-of-function mutations in the AAGAB gene were identified as the cause of this disorder. To date, 51 AAGAB mutations have been reported in families with PPPK1, but clear genotype-phenotype correlations have not been established yet. In this report, we identified four Japanese patients with PPPK1 from two families with an identical novel heterozygous AAGAB mutation. All patients showed hyperkeratotic papules only on the soles. Direct sequencing analysis of the AAGAB gene using peripheral blood-derived genomic DNA samples revealed that all of the patients carried a heterozygous 1-bp substitution (c.844G>A, p.Glu282Lys) in exon 9, leading to a missense change. Since all patients with the same missense mutation showed a mild phenotype limited to the soles, there is thought to be a genotype-phenotype correlation regarding this mutation. The c.844G>A mutation is a known single-nucleotide polymorphism with a minor allele frequency of 0.000012. Because of its mild symptoms, individuals with this mutation can be misdiagnosed with clavus or verruca vulgaris; this suggests that there may be a high incidence of mild symptoms of skin lesions found only on the soles in patients with PPPK1. Therefore, it is necessary to consider this disease when keratotic papules are found on the soles.

Abstract
Palmoplantar keratoderma (PPK) is a collective term for keratinizing disorders in which the main clinical symptom is hyperkeratosis on the palms and soles. To establish the first Japanese guidelines approved by the Japanese Dermatological Association for the management of PPKs, the Committee for the Management of PPKs was founded as part of the Study Group for Rare Intractable Diseases. These guidelines aim to provide current information for the management of PPKs in Japan. Based on evidence, they summarize the clinical manifestations, pathophysiologies, diagnostic criteria, disease severity determination criteria, treatment, and treatment recommendations. Because of the rarity of PPKs, there are only few clinical studies with a high degree of evidence. Therefore, several parts of these guidelines were established based on the opinions of the committee. To further optimize the guidelines, periodic revision in line with new evidence is necessary.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hereditary palmoplantar keratodermas (PPK) represent a heterogeneous group of rare skin disorders with epidermal hyperkeratosis of the palms and soles, with occasional additional manifestations in other tissues. Mutations in at least 69 genes have been implicated in PPK, but further novel candidate genes and mutations are still to be found. OBJECTIVES To identify mutations underlying PPK in a cohort of 64 patients. METHODS DNA of 48 patients was analysed on a custom-designed in-house panel for 35 PPK genes, and 16 patients were investigated by a diagnostic genetic laboratory either by whole-exome sequencing, gene panels or targeted single-gene sequencing. RESULTS Of the 64 PPK patients, 32 had diffuse (50%), 19 focal (30%) and 13 punctate (20%) PPK. None had striate PPK. Pathogenic mutations in altogether five genes were identified in 31 of 64 (48%) patients, the majority (22/31) with diffuse PPK. Of them, 11 had a mutation in AQP5, five in SERPINB7, four in KRT9 and two in SLURP1. AAGAB mutations were found in nine punctate PPK patients. New mutations were identified in KRT9 and AAGAB. No pathogenic mutations were detected in focal PPK. Variants of uncertain significance (VUS) in PPK-associated and other genes were observed in 21 patients that might explain their PPK. No suggestive pathogenic variants were found for 12 patients. CONCLUSIONS Diffuse PPK was the most common (50%) and striate PPK was not observed. We identified pathogenic mutations in 48% of our PPK patients, mainly in five genes: AQP5, AAGAB, KRT9, SERPINB7 and SLURP1.

Abstract
A single male Rottweiler dog with severe footpad hyperkeratosis starting at an age of eight weeks was investigated. The hyperkeratosis was initially restricted to the footpads. The footpad lesions caused severe discomfort to the dog and had to be trimmed under anesthesia every 8–10 weeks. Histologically, the epidermis showed papillated villous projections of dense keratin in the stratum corneum. Starting at eight months of age, the patient additionally developed signs consistent with atopic dermatitis and recurrent bacterial skin and ear infections. Crusted hyperkeratotic plaques developed at sites of infection. We sequenced the genome of the affected dog and compared the data to 655 control genomes. A search for variants in 32 candidate genes associated with human palmoplantar keratoderma (PPK) revealed a single private protein-changing variant in the affected dog. This was located in the DSG1 gene encoding desmoglein 1. Heterozygous monoallelic DSG1 variants have been reported in human patients with striate palmoplantar keratoderma I (SPPK1), while biallelic DSG1 loss of function variants in humans lead to a more pronounced condition termed severe dermatitis, multiple allergies, and metabolic wasting (SAM) syndrome. The identified canine variant, DSG1:c.2541_2545delGGGCT, leads to a frameshift and truncates about 20% of the coding sequence. The affected dog was homozygous for the mutant allele. The comparative data on desmoglein 1 function in humans suggest that the identified DSG1 variant may have caused the footpad hyperkeratosis and predisposition for allergies and skin infections in the affected dog.

BACKGROUND Pachyonychia congenita (PC), a rare genodermatosis, primarily affects ectoderm-derived epithelial appendages and typically includes oral leukokeratosis, nail dystrophy and very painful palmoplantar keratoderma (PPK). PC dramatically impacts quality of life although it does not affect lifespan. PC can arise from mutations in any of the wound-repair-associated keratin genes KRT6A, KRT6B, KRT6C, KRT16 or KRT17. There is no cure for this condition, and current treatment options for PC symptoms are limited and palliative in nature. OBJECTIVES This review focuses on recent progress made towards understanding the pathophysiology of PPK lesions, the most prevalent and debilitating of all PC symptoms. METHODS We reviewed the relevant literature with a particular focus on the Krt16 null mouse, which spontaneously develops footpad lesions that mimic several aspects of PC-associated PPK. RESULTS There are three main stages of progression of PPK-like lesions in Krt16 null mice. Ahead of lesion onset, keratinocytes in the palmoplantar (footpad) skin exhibit specific defects in terminal differentiation, including loss of Krt9 expression. At the time of PPK onset, there is elevated oxidative stress and hypoactive Keap1-Nrf2 signalling. During active PPK, there is a profound defect in the ability of the epidermis to maintain or return to normal homeostasis. CONCLUSIONS The progress made suggests new avenues to explore for the treatment of PC-based PPK and deepens our understanding of the mechanisms controlling skin tissue homeostasis. What's already known about this topic? Pachyonychia congenita (PC) is a rare genodermatosis caused by mutations in KRT6A, KRT6B, KRT6C, KRT16 and KRT17, which are normally expressed in skin appendages and induced following injury. Individuals with PC present with multiple clinical symptoms that usually include thickened and dystrophic nails, palmoplantar keratoderma (PPK), glandular cysts and oral leukokeratosis. The study of PC pathophysiology is made challenging because of its low incidence and high complexity. There is no cure or effective treatment for PC. What does this study add? This text reviews recent progress made when studying the pathophysiology of PPK associated with PC. This recent progress points to new possibilities for devising effective therapeutics that may complement current palliative strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Punctate palmoplantar keratoderma type 1 (PPPK1) presents in late childhood to adulthood with multiple small discrete hyperkeratotic papules on palms and soles. PPPK1 is an autosomal dominant skin disease caused by AAGAB mutations. It has been suggested that PPPK1 may be associated with an increased predisposition to systemic malignancies. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the presence of AAGAB mutations in Canadian families with PPPK1 and the possible increased predisposition to systemic malignancies. METHODS Eighteen unrelated Canadian families with PPPK1 were recruited for this study. Genomic DNA was extracted from saliva and PCR amplification was performed for all AAGAB exons and exon/intron junctions. PCR products were sequenced and analyzed for mutations. A family history of malignancy was obtained from the index case and, when possible, from other family members. RESULTS We have identified 5 heterozygous AAGAB loss of function mutations in 11 families. The mutation c.370 C>T, p.Arg124* was the most prevalent and was identified in 6 families. A splice site mutation, c.451+3delAAGT, was identified in 2 families. The other mutations c.473delG, p.Gly158Glufs*0; c.550-551insAAT, p.Gly183*; and c.505-506 dupAA, p.Asn169Lysfs*6 were each identified in 1 family. Different cancers were reported in 11 families (Table 1 and Supplemental Figure S1). CONCLUSIONS AAGAB mutations were found in 11 of 18 families with PPPK1. In some families there appears to be an association with cancer.

Abstract
Protein coats are supramolecular complexes that assemble on the cytosolic face of membranes to promote cargo sorting and transport carrier formation in the endomembrane system of eukaryotic cells. Several types of protein coats have been described, including COPI, COPII, AP-1, AP-2, AP-3, AP-4, AP-5, and retromer, which operate at different stages of the endomembrane system. Defects in these coats impair specific transport pathways, compromising the function and viability of the cells. In humans, mutations in subunits of these coats cause various congenital diseases that are collectively referred to as coatopathies. In this article, we review the fundamental properties of protein coats and the diseases that result from mutation of their constituent subunits.

Abstract
Multimeric adaptors are broadly involved in vesicle-mediated membrane trafficking. AP2 adaptor, in particular, plays a central role in clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) by recruiting cargo and clathrin to endocytic sites. It is generally thought that trafficking adaptors such as AP2 adaptor assemble spontaneously. In this work, however, we discovered that AP2 adaptor assembly is an ordered process controlled by alpha and gamma adaptin binding protein (AAGAB), an uncharacterized factor identified in our genome-wide genetic screen of CME. AAGAB guides the sequential association of AP2 subunits and stabilizes assembly intermediates. Without the assistance of AAGAB, AP2 subunits fail to form the adaptor complex, leading to their degradation. The function of AAGAB is abrogated by a mutation that causes punctate palmoplantar keratoderma type 1 (PPKP1), a human skin disease. Since other multimeric trafficking adaptors operate in an analogous manner to AP2 adaptor, their assembly likely involves a similar regulatory mechanism.

Abstract
The term palmoplantar keratoderma (PPK) indicates any form of persistent thickening of the epidermis of palms and soles and includes genetic as well as acquired conditions. We review the nosology of hereditary PPKs that comprise an increasing number of entities with different prognoses, and a multitude of associated cutaneous and extracutaneous features. On the basis of the phenotypic consequences of the underlying genetic defect, hereditary PPKs may be divided into the following: (i) non-syndromic, isolated PPKs, which are characterized by a unique or predominant palmoplantar involvement; (ii) non-syndromic PPKs with additional distinctive cutaneous and adnexal manifestations, here named complex PPKs; (iii) syndromic PPKs, in which PPK is associated with specific extracutaneous manifestations. To date, the diagnosis of the different hereditary PPKs is based mainly on clinical history and features combined with histopathological findings. In recent years, the exponentially increasing use of next-generation sequencing technologies has led to the identification of several novel disease genes, and thus substantially contributed to elucidate the molecular basis of such a heterogeneous group of disorders. Here, we focus on hereditary non-syndromic isolated and complex PPKs. Syndromic PPKs are reviewed in the second part of this 2-part article, where other well-defined genetic diseases, which may present PPK among their phenotypic manifestations, are also listed and diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for PPKs are summarized.

Abstract
Hereditary palmoplantar keratoderma (PPK) is a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by hyperkeratosis of the palm and the sole skin. Hereditary PPK are divided into four groups--diffuse, focal, striate and punctate PPK--according to the clinical patterns of the hyperkeratotic lesions. Each group includes simple PPK, without associated features, and PPK with associated features, such as involvement of nails, teeth and other organs. PPK have been classified by a clinically based descriptive system. In recent years, many causative genes of PPK have been identified, which has confirmed and/or rearranged the traditional classifications. It is now important to diagnose PPK by a combination of the traditional morphological classification and genetic testing. In this review, we focus on PPK without associated features and introduce their morphological features, genetic backgrounds and new findings from the last decade.

Abstract
Palmoplantar keratodermas comprise a diverse group of acquired and hereditary disorders marked by excessive thickening of the epidermis of palms and soles. Early onset and positive family history suggest a genetic cause. While hereditary forms of palmoplantar keratoderma (PPK) may represent the sole or dominant clinical feature, they may also be associated with other ectodermal defects or extracutaneous manifestations. In recent years, much progress has been made in deciphering the genetic basis of PPK, which has led to the emergence of new disorders and syndromes. The elucidation of disease mechanisms has opened new avenues for specific therapies, increasingly sparking interest in this field. Given the high heterogeneity with respect to clinical features, genetic defects, and disease mechanisms, the classification of PPK is based on various criteria. These include extent of disease manifestations, morphology of palmoplantar skin involvement, inheritance patterns, and molecular pathogenesis. Though not always feasible, the clinical distinction of various PPK entities is based on fine-tuned criteria or clues. Remarkably, apparently distinct disorders have been shown to be allelic, as they are caused by mutations in the same gene. By contrast, similar clinical pictures may result from mutations in different genes. Because of this complexity, mutation analysis is required to determine the precise type of PPK. The best-defined entities are described in this review.

Abstract
Genodermatoses are rare genetic disorders with a broad spectrum of cutaneous and extracutaneous manifestations that have a genetic background. A thorough clinical examination, laboratory workup and morphological analyses of the skin remain crucial for the diagnosis in the era of next generation sequencing (NGS). The diagnostic algorithm depends on the clinical and molecular heterogeneity and should be adapted for each group of genodermatoses. In cases with uncharacteristic phenotypes which cannot be classified, NGS-based testing accelerates the time to diagnosis and leads to the identification of new disorders and new disease-associated genes. The new knowledge on genotype-phenotype correlations should enable revision of the classification of genodermatoses on a molecular basis.

Abstract
EpsinR and gadkin are two components of intracellular clathrin-coated vesicles whose precise functions are unclear. Rapid depletion of each protein from the available pool using the knocksideways method strongly inhibited the production of intracellular clathrin-coated vesicles, providing new insights into the functions of both proteins. The precise functions of most of the proteins that participate in clathrin-mediated intracellular trafficking are unknown. We investigated two such proteins, epsinR and gadkin, using the knocksideways method, which rapidly depletes proteins from the available pool by trapping them onto mitochondria. Although epsinR is known to be an N-ethylmaleimide–sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE)-specific adaptor, the epsinR knocksideways blocked the production of the entire population of intracellular clathrin-coated vesicles (CCVs), suggesting a more global function. Using the epsinR knocksideways data, we were able to estimate the copy number of all major intracellular CCV proteins. Both sides of the vesicle are densely covered, indicating that CCVs sort their cargo by molecular crowding. Trapping of gadkin onto mitochondria also blocked the production of intracellular CCVs but by a different mechanism: vesicles became cross-linked to mitochondria and pulled out toward the cell periphery. Both phenotypes provide new insights into the regulation of intracellular CCV formation, which could not have been found using more conventional approaches.

Abstract
The skin is composed of a variety of cell types expressing specific molecules and possessing different properties that facilitate the complex interactions and intercellular communication essential for maintaining the structural integrity of the skin. Importantly, a single mutation in one of these molecules can disrupt the entire organization and function of these essential networks, leading to cell separation, blistering, and other striking phenotypes observed in inherited skin diseases. Over the past several decades, the genetic basis of many monogenic skin diseases has been elucidated using classical genetic techniques. Importantly, the findings from these studies has shed light onto the many classes of molecules and essential genetic as well as molecular interactions that lend the skin its rigid, yet flexible properties. With the advent of the human genome project, next-generation sequencing techniques, as well as several other recently developed methods, tremendous progress has been made in dissecting the genetic architecture of complex, non-Mendelian skin diseases.

Abstract
The last decade has seen considerable advances in our understanding of the genetic basis of skin disease, as a consequence of high throughput sequencing technologies including next generation sequencing and whole exome sequencing. We have now determined the genes underlying several monogenic diseases, such as harlequin ichthyosis, Olmsted syndrome, and exfoliative ichthyosis, which have provided unique insights into the structure and function of the skin. In addition, through genome wide association studies we now have an understanding of how low penetrance variants contribute to inflammatory skin diseases such as psoriasis vulgaris and atopic dermatitis, and how they contribute to underlying pathophysiological disease processes. In this review we discuss strategies used to unravel the genes underlying both monogenic and complex trait skin diseases in the last 10 years and the implications on mechanistic studies, diagnostics, and therapeutics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Palmoplantar dermatoses are common. They can be both functionally debilitating and markedly stigmatize the patient because they are so visible. Dermatoses on the hands and feet often go along with palmoplantar hyperkeratosis. Such palmoplantar keratoses (PPK) can be classified into acquired (non-hereditary) and hereditary (monogenetic) PPK. OBJECTIVES A considerable proportion of PPK develop on the grounds of gene defects. As these diseases constitute a heterogeneous group of quite uncommon single entities, the treating physician must know when to entertain the diagnosis of a hereditary PPK and which causative genes should be considered. METHODS We summarize the common causes of acquired and hereditary PPK based on a review of the latest literature. RESULTS The most common causes of acquired PPK are inflammatory dermatoses like psoriasis, lichen planus, or hand and feet eczema. Also irritative-toxic (arsenic poisoning, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) and infectious causes of PPK (human papilloma viruses, syphilis, scabies, tuberculosis, mycoses) are not uncommon. Genetically caused PPK may occur isolated, within syndromes or as a paraneoplastic marker. The clinical/histological classification discerns diffuse, focal, or punctuate forms of PPK with and without epidermolysis. A new classification based on the causative gene defect is starting to replace the traditional clinical classification. CONCLUSIONS Knowledge about the large, but heterogeneous group of hereditary PPK is important to adequately counsel and treat patients and their families.

Abstract
Genomics has revolutionized the study of rare diseases. In this review, we overview the latest technological development, rare disease discoveries, implementation obstacles and bioethical challenges. First, we discuss the technology of genome and exome sequencing, including the different next-generation platforms and exome enrichment technologies. Second, we survey the pioneering centers and discoveries for rare diseases, including few of the research institutions that have contributed to the field, as well as an overview survey of different types of rare diseases that have had new discoveries due to next-generation sequencing. Third, we discuss the obstacles and challenges that allow for clinical implementation, including returning of results, informed consent and privacy. Last, we discuss possible outlook as clinical genomics receives wider adoption, as third-generation sequencing is coming onto the horizon, and some needs in informatics and software to further advance the field.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Polyarteritis nodosa is a systemic necrotizing vasculitis with a pathogenesis that is poorly understood. We identified six families with multiple cases of systemic and cutaneous polyarteritis nodosa, consistent with autosomal recessive inheritance. In most cases, onset of the disease occurred during childhood. METHODS We carried out exome sequencing in persons from multiply affected families of Georgian Jewish or German ancestry. We performed targeted sequencing in additional family members and in unrelated affected persons, 3 of Georgian Jewish ancestry and 14 of Turkish ancestry. Mutations were assessed by testing their effect on enzymatic activity in serum specimens from patients, analysis of protein structure, expression in mammalian cells, and biophysical analysis of purified protein. RESULTS In all the families, vasculitis was caused by recessive mutations in CECR1, the gene encoding adenosine deaminase 2 (ADA2). All the Georgian Jewish patients were homozygous for a mutation encoding a Gly47Arg substitution, the German patients were compound heterozygous for Arg169Gln and Pro251Leu mutations, and one Turkish patient was compound heterozygous for Gly47Val and Trp264Ser mutations. In the endogamous Georgian Jewish population, the Gly47Arg carrier frequency was 0.102, which is consistent with the high prevalence of disease. The other mutations either were found in only one family member or patient or were extremely rare. ADA2 activity was significantly reduced in serum specimens from patients. Expression in human embryonic kidney 293T cells revealed low amounts of mutant secreted protein. CONCLUSIONS Recessive loss-of-function mutations of ADA2, a growth factor that is the major extracellular adenosine deaminase, can cause polyarteritis nodosa vasculopathy with highly varied clinical expression.

Abstract
The coexistence of abnormal keratinization and aberrant pigmentation in a number of cornification disorders has long suggested a mechanistic link between these two processes. Here, we deciphered the genetic basis of Cole disease, a rare autosomal-dominant genodermatosis featuring punctate keratoderma, patchy hypopigmentation, and uncommonly, cutaneous calcifications. Using a combination of exome and direct sequencing, we showed complete cosegregation of the disease phenotype with three heterozygous ENPP1 mutations in three unrelated families. All mutations were found to affect cysteine residues in the somatomedin-B-like 2 (SMB2) domain in the encoded protein, which has been implicated in insulin signaling. ENPP1 encodes ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase 1 (ENPP1), which is responsible for the generation of inorganic pyrophosphate, a natural inhibitor of mineralization. Previously, biallelic mutations in ENPP1 were shown to underlie a number of recessive conditions characterized by ectopic calcification, thus providing evidence of profound phenotypic heterogeneity in ENPP1-associated genetic diseases.
