This study identified three SPINK5 mutations, including two novel ones, in Israeli patients with Comèl-Netherton syndrome, suggesting recurring mutations that should inform future diagnostic strategies in Israel.

Genetic mutations cause various hair diseases, and whole genome sequencing may reveal more about these conditions.
