Trait
Pustular rash
A rash composed of pustular lesions. A pustule is defined as a vesicle or bulla containing purulent material. It varies in size and may occur at different levels within the epidermis: subcorneal, intraepidermal, or basement membrane zones. The pustules may or may not be sterile and are normally filled with neutrophils.

Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Pustular rash is seen. Most people with this trait have none of those conditions, and a gene on this list says nothing about anyone's own genome.
| Gene | How often it is seen | Conditions |
|---|---|---|
| OTULINOTU deubiquitinase with linear linkage specificity | Always | In 1 condition |
| SPINK5serine peptidase inhibitor Kazal type 5 | Always | In 1 condition |
| STING1stimulator of interferon response cGAMP interactor 1 | Always | In 1 condition |
| IKBKGinhibitor of nuclear factor kappa B kinase regulatory subunit gamma | Very often (80–99%) | In 1 condition |
| IL17RAinterleukin 17 receptor A | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| IRF1interferon regulatory factor 1 | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| SYKspleen associated tyrosine kinase | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
How often is among people with one of the gene's conditions, the most often across them, as the Human Phenotype Ontology records it. These pages describe traits and the research behind them; they are not a diagnosis, and a doctor or genetic counsellor is the person to ask about symptoms.
