    Glossary COL7A1

    gene encoding collagen crucial for skin strength and stability

    The COL7A1 gene provides instructions for making a protein called collagen type VII, which is crucial for the strength and stability of the skin. Mutations in this gene can lead to a condition called dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa, where the skin becomes very fragile and blisters easily.
