A rare homozygous missense mutation of COL7A1 in a Vietnamese family
Abstract We present a homozygous missense mutation in the COL7A1 gene (NM_000094.4: c.6262G>A, p.G2088R) in a case of inversa recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB-I) from a nonconsanguineous Vietnamese family.

Pharmacophore Based Drug Designing of COL7A1; The Causative Gene of Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa
Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB) is a rare genetic disorder that causes skin fragility, trauma induced dissociation of the skin and painful wound growth. More than 20 types of genes are involved in causing EB as it is a polygenic disease and each gene is ...

Novel COL7A1 Mutations in Dystrophic Forms of Epidermolysis Bullosa [PDF]
Mutations in the type VII collagen gene (COL7A1) have been shown to underlie different variants of dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (DEB). Examination of the genetic database indicates that most of the mutations are family specific, with few recurrent mutations.

Keratinocyte-/Fibroblast-Targeted Rescue of Col7a1-Disrupted Mice and Generation of an Exact Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa Model Using a Human COL7A1 Mutation [PDF]
Recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB) is a severe hereditary bullous disease caused by mutations in COL7A1, which encodes type VII collagen (COL7). Col7a1 knockout mice (COL7(m-/-)) exhibit a severe RDEB phenotype and die within a few days after birth.

The COL7A1 gene mutation causes type VII collagen dysfunction, which subsequently leads to recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB). Patients who suffer from RDEB experience severe blisters and chronic trauma, which can eventually result in ...

A rare case of COL71A1 heterozygous mutations resulting in neonatal dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa
Epidermolysis bullosa is a group of rare hereditary vesicular skin diseases associated with mutations of COL7A1. At present, there is no effective treatment.
