Abstract
X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (XLHED) is the most common form of the ectodermal dysplasias characterized by an abnormal development of eccrine sweat glands, hair and teeth. Pathogenic mutations in the ED1 gene have been identified. In this family, a 22-bp deletion mutation of exon 8 in the ED1 gene was found in the affected members but not in the healthy individuals and 100 unrelated controls. We add new variant to the knowledge of ED1 mutations in XLHED.
