Abstract excerpt
Background: Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a clinical and genetic disorder characterised by bone fragility, growth deficiency and skeletal deformity. Ninety per cent of OI cases are attributable to autosomal dominant variants in the COL1A1 and COL1A2 genes. Methods: Candidate variants were identified and verified through trio whole-exome sequencing (trio-WES), copy number variation sequencing (CNV-seq) and...
