The p.P25L mutation in the KRT5 gene causes a rare skin condition that worsens over time and may lead to hair loss starting in young adulthood.

Targeting Hedgehog signaling may help treat ligamentum flavum fibrosis.

Researchers created a mouse with the same mutation as humans with trichothiodystrophy, showing similar symptoms and confirming the condition is due to defects in DNA repair and gene activity.

Mutations in β1 integrins cause embryonic death but have milder effects on skin.

Meis2 is essential for touch sensation and nerve function in mice.
