Mutations in familial porphyria cutanea tarda: Two novel and two previously described for hepatoerythropoietic porphyria

Uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase (URO-D) deficiency is responsible for two forms of genetic cutaneous porphyria: familial porphyria cutanea tarda (f-PCT) and hepatoerythropoietic porphyria (HEP). The f-PCT transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait, is characterized by photosensitive cutaneous lesions...
