Apparent Missense Variant in COL7A1 Causes a Severe Form of Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa via Effects on Splicing

Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa is an inherited skin disorder characterized by fragile skin that is prone to blistering. We report here a consanguineous Pakistani family with two siblings, in whom a severe recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa was suspected. Using whole-exome sequencing for on...
