Abnormality of type IX collagen in a patient with diastrophic dysplasia.

American journal of medical genetics - 15 Feb 1994

Abstract excerpt

There is growing evidence that a spectrum of chondrodysplasias are caused by mutations in the gene coding for type II collagen. The basic molecular defect in diastrophic dysplasia has not been defined, but it appears not to be in collagen type II. Cartilage contains other tissue-specific collagens, types IX, X, and XI, but no mutations have yet been found in their genes in clinical disease. Type IX collagen is...
