Matrix Biol. 2020 Aug;90:40–60 Abstract: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32173581/In brief: Mutations in 3-hydroxylation complex genes CRTAP and P3H1 cause osteogenesis imperfecta type VII and VIII, respectively. However, the pathogenic mechanism by which these mutations cause disease remains unclear. This study points to a defective chaperone role of the 3-h...
