Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To identify keratin 5 (K5) and keratin 14 (K14) gene mutations in a family affected with epidermolysis bullosa simplex with mottled pigmentation. METHODS: Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood samples obtained from eleven patients from the family and controls. All the exons of K5 and K14 genes were amplified using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and directly sequenced. RESULTS: By DNA...
