Exclusion of the alpha 1(II) cartilage collagen gene as the mutant locus in type IA osteogenesis imperfecta.

چکیده
Using two restriction site polymorphisms within the structural gene coding for human type II collagen we have examined the segregation of this gene in three pedigrees with dominantly inherited osteogenesis imperfecta (Sillence type IA). We have demonstrated that the gene does not segregate with clinical expression of the disease and cannot, therefore, contain the mutation responsible for osteogenesis imperfecta in these families.

Clinical and genetical aspects of autosomal dominantly inherited osteogenesis imperfecta tarda
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) tarda dominant type is caused by mutations in the type I collagen genes, COL1A1 and COL1A2. The essence of our haplotype analysis of osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) was to get information about the value of 8 short tandem repeat (STR) markers for the segregation of COL1A1 and COL1A2 genes on the 12 OI pedigrees and to delimit the place of mutation to one locus. The mol...
متن کاملSegregation analysis of dominant osteogenesis imperfecta in Italy.
We have performed linkage analysis in seven Italian families, in which mild osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) segregated as a dominant trait, by means of six DNA restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) of type I collagen genes. OI type I was linked to the alpha 1(I) gene (COL1A1) in two families, and to the alpha 2(I) gene (COL1A2) in one family. OI type IV segregated with COL1A2 in two fa...
متن کاملAn unusual pattern of peptide-bound lysine metabolism in collagen from an infant with lethal perinatal osteogenesis imperfecta.
Collagens extracted from bones, cartilage, dermis, and dura mater of an infant with type II (lethal perinatal) osteogenesis imperfecta were evaluated with respect to chain composition and chemical characteristics of their constituent chains. The results indicated that the various types of collagen were present in the indicated tissues in proportions that approximated normal tissues. Nevertheles...
متن کاملIdentification and Computational Analysis of Chicken Alpha-1 Collagen Sequences
Collagen is a protein that is found in cartilage, bone and other tissues in animals and humans. People utilize collagen from chicken for medicine. It is used to treat joint pain associated with many types of arthritis and surgery, with back pain, neck pain, and pain subsequent injury. So far, 26 genetically distinct collagen types have been described. However, there is not sufficient informatio...
متن کاملOsteogenesis 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.
Skin fibroblasts grown from three individuals with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) each synthesized a population of normal type I collagen molecules and additional molecules that had one or two alpha 1(I) chains that contained a cysteine residue within the triple-helical domain, a region from which cysteine normally is excluded. The patients had very different phenotypes. One patient with OI type ...
