A heterozygous missense mutation, c.3040C > T (p.R1014C), in the type I collagen alpha1 chain gene (COL1A1) was reported in families with the autosomal dominant form of ICH.
A heterozygous mutation for a 3040C-->T in exon 41 of COL1A1 was found in affected individuals, further confirming the autosomal dominance of Caffey disease that is caused by this particular mutation.
Two arginine-to-cysteine substitutions in the alpha1(I)-collagen chain are associated with classic EDS [R134C (p.R312C)] or autosomal dominant Caffey disease with mild EDS features [R836C (p.R1014C)].
