A 14‐year‐old Iranian boy with congenital cutis laxa and several other typical autosomal recessive type II features was examined. Mutation analysis of the pyrroline‐5‐carboxylate reductase 1 gene revealed a single‐base deletion (c.345delC) in exon 4 leading to frame shift and premature termination of translation.
