Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To study a family affected with osteogenesis imperfecta for potential mutations in COL1A1 gene. METHODS: Clinical data of an affected family was collected. Potential mutation of the COL1A1 gene was screened using polymerase chain reaction and direct sequencing. Suspected mutation was detected in 20 unaffected relatives and 200 unrelated healthy controls. RESULTS: Analysis of RNA splicing has revealed a...
