We briefly compare reported phenotypes for patients with missense variants in the C-propeptide domain for other human collagen disorders including COL1A1 and COL1A2 (osteogenesis imperfecta).
Two COL1A1 and two COL1A2 RFLPs were more polymorphic than in the English population, making them better markers for the analysis of Italian families affected by osteogenesis imperfecta and some other inherited collagen diseases.
