Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

All of these proteins have been shown to be altered by genetic mutations in patients with epidermolysis bullosa. Mutations in the F1F1F1S1F1F1F10₆ and F1F1F1S1F1F1F10₄ integrin subunits result in various forms of junctional epidermolysis bullosa. Mutations in collagen VII lead to dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa, and mutations in laminin-5 result in Herlitz junctional epidermolysis bullosa.
