Mutations in the gene of lysyl hydroxylase of patients with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type VI

Abstract Lysyl hydroxylase (EC 1.14.11.4, procollagen-lysine 2-oxoglutarate 5-dioxygenase, PLOD) catalyses the formation of hydroxylysine in collagens and in the other collagen like proteins. Hydroxylysine participates in the formation of cross-links between collagen molecules and can bind to the c...
