| Abstract | Generalised atrophic benign epidermolysis bullosa (GABEB) is a form of junctional epidermolysis bullosa with a recessive mode of inheritance. The gene considered likely to be involved in this disease is COL17A1, since in the majority of GABEB patients the product of that gene, the 180-kD bullous pemphigoid antigen (BP180), is undetectable in skin. We have identified an intragenic COL17A1 microsatellite marker for which 83% of randomly selected control individuals are heterozygous. We observed homozygosity for different alleles of this marker in five out of six collagen type XVII-negative GABEB patients of different European descent. Five of the six COL17A1 alleles of three patients originating from the eastern part of The Netherlands were identical, as were the haplotypes including flanking markers. The 2342delG mutation was identified in all these five alleles. This confirms the expectation that due to genetic drift and hidden inbreeding for an autosomal recessive disorder with low gene frequency, such as collagen type XVII-negative GABEB, most disease alleles from a restricted geographical area will be “identical by descent”. Our results demonstrate that involvement of a candidate gene can be confirmed by looking for identity by descent of highly informative intragenic markers. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
