Serine for glycine substitutions in the C-terminal third of the alpha 1(I) chain of collagen I in five patients with nonlethal osteogenesis imperfecta.
Substitution of arginine for glycine at position 154 of the alpha 1 chain of type I collagen in a variant of osteogenesis imperfecta: comparison to previous cases with the same mutation.
Mutation in the carboxy-terminal propeptide of the Pro alpha 1(I) chain of type I collagen in a child with severe osteogenesis imperfecta (OI type III): possible implications for protein folding.
An RT-PCR-SSCP screening strategy for detection of mutations in the gene encoding the alpha 1 chain of type I collagen: application to four patients with osteogenesis imperfecta.
Substitution of cysteine for glycine at residue 415 of one allele of the alpha 1(I) chain of type I procollagen in type III/IV osteogenesis imperfecta.
Substitution of serine for alpha 1(I)-glycine 844 in a severe variant of osteogenesis imperfecta minimally destabilizes the triple helix of type I procollagen. The effects of glycine substitutions on thermal stability are either position of amino acid specific.
Osteogenesis imperfecta. The position of substitution for glycine by cysteine in the triple helical domain of the pro alpha 1(I) chains of type I collagen determines the clinical phenotype.
