They examined a cohort of 27 families, 15 with Herlitz and 12 with non-Herlitz JEB, for mutations in the candidate genes LAMA3, LAMB3, and LAMC2. The mutation detection strategy consisted of PCR amplification of all exons in these genes, followed by heteroduplex scanning and sequencing. They were able to identify pathogenic mutations in both alleles of each proband, the largest number of mutations being in the LAMB3 gene. Examination of the mutation database, which provided clinical information, revealed that most cases with Herlitz JEB harbored premature termination codon (PTC) mutations in both alleles. In non-Herlitz cases, the PTC mutation was frequently associated with a missense mutation or a putative splicing mutation in trans. In 3 cases with putative splicing mutations, RT-PCR analysis revealed a repertoire of splice variants in-frame, predicting the synthesis of either shortened or lengthened, yet partly functional, polypeptides. These observations would explain the relatively mild phenotype in cases with splicing mutations. <a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?cmd=link&linkname=pubmed_pubmed&from_uid=11810295" target="_blank" onclick="gtag('event', 'mim_outbound', {'name': 'PubMed Related', 'domain': 'pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov'})"><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-plus-sign mim-tip-hint" title="Click this 'reference-plus' icon to see articles related to this paragraph in PubMed."></span></a></p><p><strong><em>Severe Junctional Epidermolysis Bullosa 3B</em></strong></p><p>

<p>Laminin-5 (LAM5) is an isoform within the laminin family of proteins that is composed of 3 distinct polypeptides, the alpha-3 (LAMA3; 600805), beta-3 (LAMB3; 150310), and gamma-2 (LAMC2) chains, according to the nomenclature of Burgeson et al. (1994). Laminin-5 has also been referred to as nicein, kalinin, and epiligrin (Ryan et al., 1994). </p>

<strong>Cloning and Expression</strong>
</span>
</h4>
</div>
<span class="mim-text-font">
<p>Kallunki et al. (1992) isolated 2 novel cDNAs from a human fibrosarcoma cell library, one encoding a deduced 1,193-amino acid protein and the other encoding a deduced 1,111-amino acid protein. One of these proteins, which Kallunki et al. (1992) designated LAMB2T (LAMC2), was homologous to what was then termed laminin B2 (now termed LAMC1, 150290) but was significantly shorter. Northern blot analysis of human fetal tissues showed highest expression of LAMC2 in skin and lung, and lower expression in kidney, thymus, choroid plexus, cerebellum, and the brain intermediate zone. In situ hybridization localized LAMC2 to specific epithelial cells in skin, lung, and kidney as opposed to a general epithelial and endothelial cell expression of LAMC1 in the same tissues. </p>

<p>By in situ hybridization, Kallunki et al. (1992) demonstrated that the LAMC2 gene maps to chromosome 1q25-q31 in close proximity to the LAMC1 gene. </p><p>Aberdam et al. (1994) mapped the homologous gene in the mouse to chromosome 1 by isotopic in situ hybridization. They concluded that the mouse genes encoding the 100-kD and the 125-kD subunits of nicein are both on mouse chromosome 1 in band H1 and in the region of bands H2-6, respectively, whereas the gene encoding the 150-kD subunit of mouse nicein is located in the A band of chromosome 18. </p><p>Stumpf (2022) mapped the LAMC2 gene to chromosome 1q25.3 based on an alignment of the LAMC2 sequence (GenBank BC113378) with the genomic sequence (GRCh38).</p>

Nakano et al. (2002) identified a mutation in the LAMC2 gene (R245X; 150292.0006) in a patient with non-Herlitz JEB (JEB3A; 619785). Nakano et al. (2002) examined the molecular basis of the specification of Herlitz versus non-Herlitz forms of JEB. They examined a cohort of 27 families, 15 with Herlitz and 12 with non-Herlitz JEB, for mutations in the candidate genes LAMA3, LAMB3, and LAMC2. The mutation detection strategy consisted of PCR amplification of all exons in these genes, followed by heteroduplex scanning and sequencing. They were able to identify pathogenic mutations in both alleles of each proband, the largest number of mutations being in the LAMB3 gene. Examination of the mutation database, which provided clinical information, revealed that most cases with Herlitz JEB harbored premature termination codon (PTC) mutations in both alleles. In non-Herlitz cases, the PTC mutation was frequently associated with a missense mutation or a putative splicing mutation in trans. In 3 cases with putative splicing mutations, RT-PCR analysis revealed a repertoire of splice variants in-frame, predicting the synthesis of either shortened or lengthened, yet partly functional, polypeptides. These observations would explain the relatively mild phenotype in cases with splicing mutations. </p><p><strong><em>Severe Junctional Epidermolysis Bullosa 3B</em></strong></p><p>
In a patient with the Herlitz form of junctional epidermolysis bullosa (JEB3B; 619786), Pulkkinen et al. (1994) identified a homozygous mutation in the LAMC2 gene (150292.0001). </p><p>Aberdam et al. (1994) found mutations in the LAMC2 gene in patients with Herlitz JEB. Linkage studies indicated close linkage to microsatellite markers in the region of chromosome 1 where the LAMC2 gene had previously been mapped. The approach of homozygosity mapping was used in part. </p>

<p>In a girl with the Herlitz-Pearson type of junctional epidermolysis bullosa (JEB3B; 619786), Pulkkinen et al. (1994) identified a homozygous G-to-A transition in intron 8 of the LAMC2 gene, resulting in the skipping of exon 9. The deletion was predicted to result in shortening of the kalinin gamma-2 chain by 73 amino acids within subdomains III and IV. The patient had multiple erosions and hemorrhagic blisters. She had lost nails from the fingers and toes, but there was no fusion of digits. She died at age 23. A similarly affected older sister had died at age 21. The parents were reportedly unaffected. Since the first nucleotide of exon 9 is 1184, Pulkkinen et al. (1994) referred to this mutation as 1184,-1,G-to-A. </p>

Transfection of this mutant cDNA into LAMC2-null keratinocytes resulted in restoration of laminin-5 deposition onto the culture substrate, which demonstrated that the gamma-2 polypeptides carrying a deletion in domain V, upstream of the gamma-2 proteolytic cleavage site, are assembled into native laminin-5 that is secreted and extracellularly processed.

To ensure long-term funding for the OMIM project, we have diversified
our revenue stream. We are determined to keep this website freely
accessible. Unfortunately, it is not free to produce. Expert curators
review the literature and organize it to facilitate your work. Over 90%
of the OMIM's operating expenses go to salary support for MD and PhD
science writers and biocurators. Please join your colleagues by making a
donation now and again in the future. Donations are an important
component of our efforts to ensure long-term funding to provide you the
information that you need at your fingertips.
