The type II procollagen gene (COL2A1) has been targeted for extensive analysis in degenerative diseases of the joint because of its abundance in epiphyseal and articular cartilage tissue. There is now considerable evidence to support its involvement in several types of heritable skeletal disorders in at least two bone dysplasia families: spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia and Stickler/Kniest dysplasia. In order to establish the relationship between COL2A1 gene mutations and various subsets of bone dysplasias, we have utilized Conformation Sensitive Gel Electrophoresis (CSGE; 1) to screen for potential mutations in a mixed population of normal controls and patients with growth plate disorders and/or osteoarthritis. For the analyses, we have used PCR primers for the amplification of the gene which are normally used in our laboratory for sequence studies (2). The PCR products from the COL2A1 gene ranged in size from 291 to 811 bp and included all 54 exons of the gene plus all intron/exon boundary regions. Following amplification by the PCR, 20^ 1 of each sample was heated to 98 C for 5 min followed by incubation at 68 C for 1 h to generate heteroduplexes. Details of the running buffer, and electrophoretic conditions have been described elsewhere (1). However, the gel composition has been modified as follows: a stock solution of 39.6 g of acrylamide and 0.4 g of bis-acrolylpiperazine (BAP; Fluka) is made in 100 ml of sterile, distilled water and used to prepare a 10% polyacrylamide gel containing 10%(vol/vol) ethylene glycol (Sigma), and 15%(wt/vol) formamide (GIBCO/BRL). It should also be noted that the composition of 1XTTE is 89 mM Tris/29 mM taurine buffer/0.5 mM EDTA, pH 9.0 (United States Biochemical Co.). CSGE analyses were routinely performed on eight patient samples at once; the 36-well gel format permitted the analysis of four PCR products for each of the eight samples, plus extra lanes for molecular weight standards. However, to make full use of the separating capacity of the large gel format, two separate heteroduplexed PCR products of different sizes from each sample were loaded in the same lane. Thus, analysis of a complete panel of 32 COL2A1 PCR products from eight samples could be accomplished by running four gels over the course of two days.
