All of these genes are named according to the HUGO Gene Nomenclature Committee [47]
  2. aWe have chosen to write the mutation as it has been mentioned in the article (12,44), in order to do not misinterpret the data
  3. bAll of these patients had laminin-332 reduced in immunofluorescence, except for the patient from the Mohr et al. study [13] with laminin-332 negative
  4. cThese 2 patients were COL17A negative in immunofluorescence
  5. dIn the article of Arita et al. [20], the gene was named KIND1, but it is currently known as FERMT1 according to the HUGO Gene Nomenclature Committee [47]
