Abstract
The article focuses on the case of a Tunisian patient with mild clinical phenotype that may be possibly identified as xeroderma pigmentosum variant (XP-V). It presents molecular and genetic analyses of POLH gene in the patient. It says that genetic mutations have been screened through direct exon sequencing of the POLH gene. It mentions that POHL gene linkage was performed through informative microsatellite markers.
