Abstract excerpt
Serine for glycine substitutions in type I collagen have been described in seven cases of lethal type II osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), and six cases of nonlethal OI. We describe here two cases of moderately severe type IV OI with serine substitutions at alpha 1(I) Gly352 and alpha 2(I) Gly922, re...
