LAMA2 and congenital muscular dystrophy due to LMNA mutation: Mutations in LAMA2, the gene that encodes for the SkM basal lamina isoform, result in a subtype of congenital muscular dystrophy (CMD), LAMA2-MD, characterized by disruption of laminin-211 (Merosin) (Sframeli et al., 2017; Mohassel et al., 2018).
