We have studied a consanguineous family containing two children with severe, generalized epidermolysis bullosa simplex (EBS). Electron microscopy of skin biopsies from the affected individuals showed that basal keratinocytes were devoid of tonofilament bundles, although some single intermediate fila

Epidermolysis bullosa simplex (EBS) is a group of autosomal dominant genetic skin disorders caused by mutations of the keratin genes KRT5 and KRT14. It is characterised by lysis of basal keratinocytes leading to the development of intraepidermal blisters upon minor mechanical trauma. We investigated
