1.	Type 3 Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor (Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor 3)IBA 11/01/2018 - "Familial acanthosis nigricans caused by the mutation of the fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) gene is characterized by short stature, hypochondroplasia and acanthosis nigricans. "
2.	Nonsense Codon (Nonsense Mutation)IBA 08/01/2021 - "While all of the known pathogenic mutations were missense mutations in FGFR3 showing autosomal dominant trait, the c.2302G>T mutation of FGFR3 is a unique autosomal dominant nonsense mutation that causes familial acanthosis nigricans probably via loss of negative regulatory autophosphorylation site of FGFR3." 08/01/2021 - "Autosomal dominant familial acanthosis nigricans caused by a C-terminal nonsense mutation of FGFR3."
