GNAQ, encoding the G protein subunit alpha q, is somatically mutated in isolated capillary malformation termed as port-wine stain (PWS) and the more severe neurocutaneous Sturge–Weber syndrome (SWS) that is characterized by facial port-wine stains, and ocular and cerebral vascular malformations [16, 17]. The gene discussed is GNAQ; the disease is capillary malformation.
