A child with typical spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia congenita had a recurrent, heterozygous
substitution of arginine 789 by cysteine in the triple helical domain of alpha 1 (II) chains of
type II collagen. The amino substitution was due to the transition of cytosine 2913 to thymine
in exon 41 of the COL2A1 gene. The amino acid substitution involved the Y position of a Gly-
XY triplet.
