Structural defects in the human type 1 collagen genes are known to be the cause of several inherited disorders of connective tissue, such as osteogenesis imperfecta. The analysis and prenatal diagnosis of these disorders would be facilitated by establishing a set of polymorphic markers at these gene
Collagen biosynthesis is a complex process that begins with the association of three procollagen chains. A series of conserved intra-and interchain disulfide bonds in the carboxyl-terminal region of the procollagen chains, or C-propeptide, has been hypothesized to play an important role in the nucle
