COL7A1 Report
COL7A1
The COL7A1 report screens for genetic variants associated with epidermolysis bullosa, a group of rare inherited skin disorders characterized by blistering and skin fragility. Epidermolysis bullosa is caused by mutations in the COL7A1 gene, which provides instructions for making a protein that helps anchor the layers of the skin together. This report tests for variants in the COL7A1 gene that can affect this process.
