| Abstract | Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa is a heritable skin disorder with dominant and recessive genetic patterns. Numerous studies underline that both forms are caused by mutations of the COL7A1 gene, which encodes collagen type VII. It has been reported that most mutations detected in the recessive disease form are nonsense mutations or small insertions or deletions leading to frameshift and premature translational termination, which tend to produce severe phenotypes. In contrast, missense mutations causing amino acid substitutions, which result in variable phenotypes, predominate in the dominant form of dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa. Genomic DNA from the patient and parents was subjected to PCR amplification of the coding region of the COL7A1 gene. Direct sequencing of the PCR products revealed a homozygous single-base deletion in the patient (c.6269-6270delC). The parents were heterozygous for the same mutation. This deletion is a novel mutation in the human COL7A1 gene based on comparisons with the Human Genome Mutation Database. To our knowledge, this is the first report of dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa in an Iranian patient confirmed by molecular diagnosis. |

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.
