Therapeutic Opportunities in Overcoming Premature Termination Codons in Epidermolysis Bullosa via Translational Readthrough

Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB) comprises a group of inherited blistering disorders caused by pathogenic variants in genes essential for skin and mucosal integrity. Nonsense mutations, which generate premature termination codons (PTCs), result in reduced or absent protein expression and contribute to sev...
