A single base mismatch was detected by a chemical cleavage method in heteroduplexes formed between patient mRNA and a control collagen aZ(1) cDNA probe in a case of osteogenesis imperfecta type 11. The region of the mRNA mismatch was amplified using the polymerase chain reaction, cloned and sequence
## Clinical Data on Patients KO was 35 years of age at the time her cell strain was sent to us. She was born to healthy unrelated parents and has two healthy siblings, both of whom have unaffected children, and no other individuals with 0 1 were identified in the family. She had many fractures at
A substitution of arginine for glycine at amino acid position 154 of the al(1) collagen chain was found in a father and his three children. The phenotype of the patients includes manifestations of types I and IIUIV osteogenesis imperfecta, but appears to be milder than that of the previously describ
