Founder Mutations in the Lipase H Gene in Families with Autosomal Recessive Woolly Hair/Hypotrichosis  Yutaka Shimomura, Muhammad Wajid, Abraham Zlotogorski, Young-Jin Lee, Robert H. Rice, Angela M.

Figure 1 Pedigrees and clinical features of two Guyanese families with ARWH. (a) Pedigree of Family A. (b) Clinical features of the affected individuals II-1 (left panel) and II-2 (right panel) in Family A when they were 12 and 10 years old, respectively. Note that both showed an obvious woolly hair phenotype. (c) Present clinical features of the affected individual II-1 in Family A. (d and e) Under light microscopy, hair shafts of the affected individual II-1 in Family A show (d) twisting and a (e) tapered end. Bars=100μm. (f) Pedigree of Family B. (g and h) Hair phenotypes of the affected individuals in Family B. (g) The affected individual II-1 shows sparse and tightly curled hair, whereas (h) the affected individual II-3 shows sparse and mildly wavy hair. (i) Diffuse keratotic follicular papules on legs of the affected individual II-1 in Family B.

Figure 2 Identification of mutations in the LIPH gene. (a) Heterozygous mutation 1303_1309dupGAAAACG in the LIPH of Family A (top panel). The inserted nucleotides are boxed. Screening assay for the mutation 1303_1309dupGAAAACG (bottom panel) shows that the mutation was inherited from the mother (I-2) of the affected individuals (II-1 and II-2). C, control individuals. (b) Heterozygous mutation Ex7_8del in the LIPH of Family A. PCR with E7F2 and E8R2 primers amplified the 183bp fragment from DNA of both affected individuals (II-1 and II-2) and their father (I-1) in Family A, as well as a Pakistani individual who is homozygous for the mutation Ex7_8del (PC, positive control), whereas this fragment was not amplified from DNA of either their mother (I-2) or a normal control individual (NC, negative control). Direct sequencing of this product shows that Family A carries exactly the same deletion mutation Ex7_8del that was found earlier in Pakistani families with ARWH. Note that the product from the wild-type allele, 5,473bp in size, could not be amplified even from DNA of control individuals because of a short extension time of the PCR. (a and b) Affected individuals are colored in red. MWM, molecular weight markers (a and b). (c) Homozygous mutation 659-660delTA in the LIPH gene of Family B. The position of the deletion is indicated by an arrow (left), and the deleted nucleotides are boxed (right).

Figure 3 Haplotype of members of the Families A and B in the LIPH locus. The position and the direction of transcription of the LIPH gene are indicated by an arrow. In Family A, the haplotypes for the mutations Ex7_8del and 1303_1309dupGAAAACG are colored in red and blue, respectively. The common haplotype for the mutation Ex7_8del between Family A and Pakistani families is highlighted in yellow, and that for the mutation 659-660delTA between Family B and Pakistani families is highlighted in blue. The haplotypes of a Pakistani family that is homozygous for either Ex7_8del or 659_660delTA are boxed.
