Palmoplantar keratoderma and congenital alopecia (PPKCA) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder characterized by severe skin hyperkeratosis, congenital alopecia and leukonychia totalis. It has been reported that mutations in GJA1 cause this disorder. GJA1 encodes a gap junction protein connexin 43 which is ubiquitously expressed in various organs, including the epidermis and hair follicles.
