Abstract excerpt
Recent advances in molecular biology have enabled the association of epidermolysis bullosa simplex (EBS) with point mutations of keratin 14 and/or keratin 5 genes to be established. We describe here the detection of point mutations in genomic DNA from formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded sections from five cases of epidermolysis bullosa using the PCR amplification of specific alleles (PASA) method. In two of four...
