Abstract

Close genetic linkage between erythrokeratodermia variabilis (EKV) and the Rh blood group system has been reported by our group. Here we describe the results of a linkage analysis in another EKV kindred, in which the disease segregated with the CDe genotype. Among 18 informative individuals, 1 recombinant was found. A maximum lod score of 4.21 was calculated at a recombination fraction of 0.03-0.04. Addition of this lod score to the earlier reported results gives a maximum lod score of 9.93 for linkage between EKV and Rh at a recombination fraction of 0.03 (95% confidence limits 0.008-0.11).
