Substitution of serine for α1(I)-glycine 844 in a severe variant of osteogenesis imperfecta minimally destabilizes the triple helix of type I procollagen. The effects of glycine substitutions on thermal stability are either position or amino acid specific
(1989)
Recent reports have demonstrated that a series of probands with severe osteogenesis imperfecta had single base mutations in one of the two structural genes for type I procollagen that substituted amino acids with bulkier ...
Type I procollagen: The gene-protein system that harbors most of the mutations causing osteogenesis imperfecta and probably more common heritable disorders of connective tissue
(1989)
Recent data from several laboratories have established that most variants of osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) are caused by mutations in the 2 structural genes for type I procollagen. There are 2 general reasons for the large ...
Substitution of cysteine for glycine-α1-691 in the proα1(I) chain of type I procollagen in a proband with lethal osteogenesis imperfecta destabilizes the triple helix at a site C-terminal to the substitution
(1991)
Skin fibroblast from a proband with lethal osteogenesis imperfecta synthesized a type I procollagen containing a cysteine residue in the α1(I) helical domain. Assay of thermal stability of the triple helix by proteinase ...
Mutation in a gene for type I procollagen (COL1A2) in a woman with postmenopausal osteoporosis: Evidence for phenotypic and genotypic overlap with mild osteogenesis imperfecta
(1991)
Mutations in the two genes for type I collagen (COL1A1 or COL1A2) cause osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), a heritable disease characterized by moderate to extreme brittleness of bone early in life. Here we show that a 52-year-old ...
Substitutions for glycine α1-637 and glycine α2-694 of type I procollagen in lethal osteogenesis imperfecta: The conformational strain on the triple helix introduced by a glycine substitution can be transmitted along the helix
(1991)
Two substitutions for glycine in the triple-helical domain were found in type I procollagen synthesized by skin fibroblasts from two probands with lethal osteogenesis imperfecta. One was a substitution of valine for glycine ...
A single base mutation in type I procollagen (COL1A1) that converts glycine α1-541 to aspartate in a lethal variant of osteogenesis imperfecta: Detection of the mutation with a carbodiimide reaction of DNA heteroduplexes and direct sequencing of products of the PCR
(1991)
Skin fibroblasts from a proband with a lethal variant of osteogenesis imperfecta synthesized both apparently normal type I procollagen and a type I procollagen that had slow electrophoretic mobility because of posttranslational ...
