CIAS1

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

CIAS1 is the gene that causes Muckle-Wells syndrome and familial cold urticaria syndrome, two dominantly inherited disorders with some similarities to neonatal onset multisystem inflammatory disease (NOMID) or chronic infantile neurologic cutaneous articular syndrome (CINCA). CIAS1 is located on the long arm of chromosome 1 and codes for the protein cryopyrin.
