To determine if some individuals with deforming varieties of osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) carry point mutations in the COL1A2 gene of type-I collagen, we examined collagens synthesized by cell strains from affected individuals for the presence of cysteine in the triple helical domain of the alpha 2

## Abstract The __oim__ mouse is a model of human Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI) that has deficient synthesis of proα2(I) chains. Cells isolated from __oim__ mice synthesize α1(I) collagen homotrimers that accumulate in tissues. To explore the feasibility of gene therapy for OI, a murine proα2(I) cDN
