Osteogenesis imperfecta: translation of mutation to phenotype.

Abstract

By the end of the recently completed Fourth International Conference on Osteogenesis Imperfecta (Pavia, Italy, 9-12 September 1990) more than 70 mutations in the two genes that encode the chains of type I collagen, the major protein of bone, had been identified as the molecular cause of different forms of osteogenesis imperfecta (OI).Although by no means complete, the set of mutations in hand provides a rough guide to how to predict the phenotypic effects of mutations in type I collagen genes, predicts that certain classes of mutations will give rise to very mild phenotypes that will blend with common disorders, such as osteoporosis, and clarifies the genetic aspects of the widely used clinical classification of O.1 Clinical classification of OI For almost a century clinicians have attempted to provide a rationale by which to understand the readily apparent clinical heterogeneity in OI.The early distinction of 'congenita' forms (those with fractures at birth) from 'tarda' forms (those who develop fractures at a later period),2 followed by acknowledgment of further phenotypic variation,3 provided early guides.About a decade ago, these early classifications were largely supplanted, at least for geneticists, by the scheme developed by Sillence et all that incorporated genetic, radiographic, and phenotypic criteria.Biochemical and genetic studies have further amended and refined this classification (table).The value of the classification is often questioned because of the difficulty in deciding where

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
