Abstract
We have developed a protocol that allows fast and efficient mutation s creening of the 54 exons from the type II procollagen (COL2A1) gene. T he protocol is based on the multiple non-radioactive hybridization of blotted single-strand conformation polymorphism gels. Using this scree ning procedure we have been able to identify a new (Gly895 to Ser) mut ation in the COL2A1 gene of a patient with a mild form of spondyloepip hyseal dysplasia congenita.
