The autosomal recessive disorder Glycogen Storage Disease Type II (GSDII) is caused by a deficiency in the lysosomal enzyme acid -glucosidase. We have optimised a procedure to use fluorescent DNA sequencing technology to screen for mutations within the -glucosidase gene from UK patients with GSDII.
A heterozygous mutation in the COL2A1 gene was identified in a patient with hypochondrogenesis. The mutation was a single nucleotide transition of G3285T that resulted in an amino acid substitution of Cys for Gly9I3 in the al(I1) chain of type I1 collagen. This amino acid change disrupted the obliga
