The authors determined that 3 distinct isoforms of the LAMA3 gene product were expressed due to differential splicing, which they designated laminin alpha-3a, alpha-3b1, and alpha-3b2. A causative LAMA3 mutation was identified in 15 consanguineous Punjabi LOCS families, consisting of a frameshift mutation (151insG; <a href="#0004">600805.0004</a>) predicting a stop codon in an exon that is specific to LAMA3. This protein is secreted only by the basal keratinocytes of stratified epithelia, implying that LOCS may be caused by dysfunction of keratinocyte-mesenchymal communication. The authors hypothesized that the laminin alpha-3a N-terminal domain may be a key regulator of the granulation tissue response. <a href="#5" class="mim-tip-reference" title="Fine, J.-D., Eady, R. A.

<span class="mim-text-font">
<p>Laminin-5 (LAM5) is an isoform within the laminin family of proteins that is composed of 3 distinct polypeptides, the alpha-3, beta-3 (LAMB3; 150310), and gamma-2 (LAMC2; 150292) 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>

Immunofluorescence microscopy and immunoprecipitation studies demonstrated that the gastric carcinoma cells in this patient produced laminin-5, and that the patient's serum contained autoantibodies directed against laminin-5. The blistering symptoms and the titer of antibasement membrane zone antibodies coordinately changed with the resection and subsequent relapse of the gastric cancer. Taniuchi et al.

<p><strong><em>Intermediate Junctional Epidermolysis Bullosa 2A</em></strong></p><p>
Nakano et al. (2002) identified mutations in the LAMA3 gene in patients with non-Herlitz junctional epidermolysis bullosa (JEB2A; 619783); see, e.g., 600805.0003. </p><p><strong><em>Severe Junctional Epidermolysis Bullosa 2B</em></strong></p><p>
In a boy with the lethal Herlitz form of junctional epidermolysis bullosa (JEB2B; 619784), Kivirikko et al. (1995) identified a homozygous nonsense mutation in the LAMA3 gene (R650X; 600805.0002). The infant was born of consanguineous Asian parents and died in early infancy. </p><p>McGrath et al. (1995) identified a homozygous R650X mutation in a child with Herlitz JEB who was born of consanguineous Pakistani parents. The patient presented at birth with extensive blisters and erosions. Electron microscopy of the skin revealed scanty, rudimentary hemidesmosome-anchoring filament complexes and tissue separation within the lamina lucida. Immunofluorescence staining of the basement membrane zone with an anti-laminin-5 antibody revealed absent labeling. Both unaffected parents were heterozygous mutation carriers. Fetal DNA extracted from a chorionic villus biopsy obtained at 10 weeks' gestation in a subsequent pregnancy showed that the fetus was not affected. </p><p><strong><em>Laryngoonychocutaneous Junctional Epidermolysis Bullosa 2C</em></strong></p><p>
Laryngoonychocutaneous junctional epidermolysis bullosa 2C (JEB2C; 245660), also known as laryngoonychocutaneous or Shabbir syndrome (LOCS), is an autosomal recessive epithelial disorder confined to the Punjabi Muslim population. McLean et al. (2003) localized the gene for LOCS to a 2-Mb region on chromosome 18q11.2 (lod = 19.8 at theta = 0), which includes the LAMA3 gene. The authors determined that 3 distinct isoforms of the LAMA3 gene product were expressed due to differential splicing, which they designated laminin alpha-3a, alpha-3b1, and alpha-3b2. A causative LAMA3 mutation was identified in 15 consanguineous Punjabi LOCS families, consisting of a frameshift mutation (151insG; 600805.0004) predicting a stop codon in an exon that is specific to LAMA3. This protein is secreted only by the basal keratinocytes of stratified epithelia, implying that LOCS may be caused by dysfunction of keratinocyte-mesenchymal communication. The authors hypothesized that the laminin alpha-3a N-terminal domain may be a key regulator of the granulation tissue response. Fine et al. (2008) noted that Shabbir syndrome is considered to be a variant of JEB. </p><p>Figueira et al. (2007) described a 7-year-old Caucasian boy with overlapping features of JEB and LOCS. They identified compound heterozygosity for mutations in the LAMA3 gene: a paternally inherited splice site mutation at the donor site of intron 35 (c.4651+1G-A; 600805.0006) and a maternally inherited missense mutation (I17N; 600805.0009) in the laminin alpha-3a isoform. Figueira et al. (2007) noted that the case was unique in having several features of LOCS (eyelid and laryngeal granulation tissue) and mutations in both the laminin alpha-3 and laminin alpha-3a isoforms, providing evidence that LOC is a variant of JEB. </p><p>In 2 Iranian sibs with LOCS, Barzegar et al. (2013) identified homozygosity for a nonsense mutation (G57X; 600805.0007) in the LAMA3 gene. The variation affects only the laminin alpha-3a transcript. Two unaffected sibs as well as both parents were heterozygous for this mutation. The mutation occurred 18 basepairs downstream from the 151insG mutation (600805.0004) described by McLean et al. (2003) in the original Punjab families. </p><p>In a proband and brother with a phenotype most closely resembling LOCS, Wang et al. (2022) identified a homozygous nonsense mutation in the LAMA3 gene (W16X; 600805.0008). The W16X variant is located in exon 1 of the laminin alpha-3a (LAMA3A) transcript, specific to LAMA3A and corresponding to exon 39 of the full-length LAMA3 gene. </p>

<strong>Animal Model</strong>
</span>
</h4>
</div>
<span class="mim-text-font">
<p>Ryan et al. (1999) observed that mice with a targeted disruption of the mouse Lama3 gene had profound epithelial abnormalities resulting in neonatal lethality. The Lama3-null animals developed junctional blisters in the skin caused by a separation at the dermal-epidermal junction, similar to that observed in human Herlitz junctional epidermolysis bullosa. Transmission electron microscopic studies showed that ablation of the Lama3 gene perturbed the formation of hemidesmosomes, which normally link the laminin-5-rich basement membrane to the keratin cytoskeleton, and disrupted the functional interaction between laminin-5 and integrin alpha-6/beta-4 (see 147557). Using tissue adhesion assays, Ryan et al. (1999) determined that in the absence of laminin-5, basal cells utilized integrin alpha-3/beta-1 (see 605025) to interact with an alternative basement membrane ligand. Using in vitro studies, Ryan et al. (1999) concluded that laminin-5-deficient epithelial cells have a survival disadvantage when compared with wildtype cells and identified conditions that allow for the rescue of mutant cells. Ryan et al. (1999) proposed that laminin-5 has an important role in regulating tissue organization, gene expression, and survival of epithelium. </p><p>Short interspersed elements (SINEs) are highly abundant components of mammalian genomes that are propagated by retrotransposition. SINEs are recognized as a causal agent of human disease, e.g., the insertion causing Fukuyama congenital muscular dystrophy (253800.0001), and must also have had a profound influence in shaping eukaryotic genomes. The B2 SINE family constitutes approximately 0.7% of total mouse genomic DNA and is also found at low abundance in humans (Mayorov et al., 2000) It resembles the Alu family in several respects, such as its mechanism of propagation. B2 SINEs are derived from tRNA and are transcribed by RNA polymerase (pol) III to generate short transcripts that are not translated. Ferrigno et al. (2001) found, however, that 1 B2 SINE also carries an active pol II promoter located outside the tRNA region. They found that a B2 element was responsible for the production of a mouse Lama3 transcript. The B2 pol II promoters can be bound and stimulated by the transcription factor USF (see USF1, 191523), as shown by transient transfection experiments. Moreover, this pol II activity does not preclude the pol III transcription necessary for retrotransposition. Dispersal of B2 SINEs by retrotransposition may therefore have provided numerous opportunities for creating regulated pol II transcription at novel genomic sites. This mechanism may have allowed the evolution of new transcription units and new genes. </p><p>Using exon-specific PCR, Graves et al. (2008) identified homozygous deletion of 6589 bp spanning exons 24 to 27 of the Lama3 gene in 10 American Saddlebred foals with junctional epidermolysis bullosa. All 10 obligate carriers were heterozygous for the deletion. The mutant Lama3 protein was predicted to lack 169 amino acids, including 111 amino acids in the LG2 domain and the first 15 amino acids of the LG3 domain. Random sampling of 175 American Saddlebreds revealed 9 that were heterozygous for the mutation, resulting in an allele frequency of 0.026 and a carrier frequency of 0.051. Assuming Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, the expected frequency of homozygous affected foals was 0.0007. </p><p>By SNP array genotyping and autozygosity mapping in 4 Belgian Blue calves with severe epidermolysis bullosa, Sartelet et al. (2015) mapped the causative gene to an 8.3-Mb interval on bovine chromosome 24, which is orthologous to human chromosome 18. Whole-genome sequencing of an affected calf, transcriptomic data from a panel of tissues, and sequencing of positional candidates identified a G-A transition in exon 60 of the Lama3 gene that replaced arg2609 with a premature stop codon (R2609X) and truncated the Lama3 protein by 22%. Screening a cohort of 3,000 animals revealed a carrier frequency of approximately 1%. </p>

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.
