Abstract excerpt
A splicing mutation in the pro-alpha 2(I) collagen gene of a patient with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type VII has been characterized. Protein microsequencing of peptides prepared from the patient's dermal collagen identified an interstitial deletion of 18 residues. The deleted segment corresponds to...
