AIMS: A striking aspect of epidermolysis bullosa patients with a mutation in KLHL24 (KLHL24mut) is their life-threatening deterioration of heart function. KLHL24 is a component of the ubiquitin-proteasome system and acts as a substrate-specific adaptor protein for E3 ubiquitin ligase. KLHL24mut is thought to represent a gain-of-function mutation, with associated cardiac and skin pathologies arising from the...
