DNA was extracted from the blood of 37 individuals (from 23 families) with germline SDH mutations and 18 PC/PGL (15 sporadic, 3 familial) and screened for mutations using a custom gene panel, containing SDHAF3 (SDH assembly factor 3) as well as eight known PC/PGL susceptibility genes. The gene discussed is SDHB; the disease is pachyonychia congenita.
