Abstract
KLHL24 mutations have recently been associated with epidermolysis bullosa simplex. Initial studies focused on skin fragility. However, the picture of KLHL24 mutations causing extracutaneous human disease is emerging, with dilated cardiomyopathy as a strong association. In addition, neurological disease is suspected as well. Careful clinical follow-up and functional studies of (mutated) KLHL24 in these tissues are needed.
