A novel missense mutation in the COL7A1 gene underlies epidermolysis bullosa pruriginosa [PDF]
Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) pruriginosa is a subtype of dominant dystrophic EB (DDEB), characterized by severe pruritus and blistering localized to the extensor surface of the extremities. EB pruriginosa exhibits extensive clinical heterogeneity with variable expression and delayed age of onset.

Two novel mutations on exon 8 and intron 65 of COL7A1 gene in two Chinese brothers result in recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa. [PDF]
Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa is an inherited bullous dermatosis caused by the COL7A1 gene mutation in autosomal dominant or recessive mode. COL7A1 gene encodes type VII collagen - the main component of the anchoring fibrils at the dermal-epidermal ...

Novel biallelic variants in COL7A1 cause recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa
Background Autosomal recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB) is an incurable and severe inherited skin disorder characterized by recurrent blistering at the sublamina densa beneath the cutaneous basement membrane. It is caused by biallelic loss‐

ABE8e adenine base editor precisely and efficiently corrects a recurrent COL7A1 nonsense mutation
Base editing introduces precise single-nucleotide edits in genomic DNA and has the potential to treat genetic diseases such as the blistering skin disease recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB), which is characterized by mutations in the ...

A nonsense mutation in the COL7A1 gene causes epidermolysis bullosa in Vorderwald cattle [PDF]
Abstract Background The widespread use of individual sires for artificial insemination promotes the propagation of recessive conditions. Inadvertent matings between unnoticed carriers of deleterious alleles may result in the manifestation of fatal phenotypes in their progeny. Breeding consultants and

CRISPR/Cas9-Mediated Generation of COL7A1-Deficient Keratinocyte Model of Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa [PDF]
Objective: Recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB) is a genetic skin fragility and ultimately lethal blisteringdisease caused by mutations in the COL7A1 gene which is responsible for coding type VII collagen.

Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa: genotype-phenotype correlations [PDF]
Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa is caused by mutations in the COL7A1 gene. The disease characterized by clinical heterogeneity. To date, scientific findings allow to evaluate correlations between the severity of clinical manifestations and genetic ...
