IDENTIFICATION OF SPECIES OF ORIGIN |
Species of Origin Confirmed by Nucleoside Phosphorylase Isoenzyme Electrophoresis |
|
procollagen-lysine 5-dioxygenase |
According to the submitter, biochemical test results for this subject showed decreased enzyme activity. EC Number: 1.14.11.4; 30% activity. |
|
Remarks |
Parents not affected; kyphoscoliosis; recurrent joint dislocation; hyperextensible skin and joints; decreased collagen hydroxylysine content; similarly affected sib; 30% of normal lysyl hydroxylase activity |
