A member asked:
What does the karyotype of a person who has osteogenesis imperfecta look like?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Like everyone elses: it is a group of at least 8 genetic disorders. allthough it's genetic: 1) 35% didn't have it in their families (spontaneous mutation?) 2) it is dominant... one good gene one bad gene 3) it is the GENE... sub microscopic change in a handful of atoms in DNA.. NOT the chromosome.
