List of cutaneous conditions caused by problems with junctional proteins

Mutations of proteins that hold the cells of the skin together can cause disease. Autoantibodies against proteins that hold the cells of the skin together can also cause disease.

Conditions caused by mutations in or antibodies against junctional proteins found within the epidermis of the human integumentary system.
