Introduction
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a group of clinically and genetically heterogeneous diseases characterized by sus-ceptibility to bone fractures, with variable degree of severityand presumedor provendefectsin collagen type I biosynthesis. Other manifestations include dentinogene-sis imperfecta, blue sclerae, and short stature, as well ashearingloss inadulthood.Clinicalmanifestationsrange fromseverecaseswithperinatallethalitytoasymptomatic individuals with mild predisposition to fractures, normal stature,andnormallife.1
Overall, the incidence of the different types of OI is approximately1in15,000-20,000birthsandmostcasesare due toautosomaldominant inheritancewithmutationsin
COL1A1or COL1A2genes,whichencode the␣1(I)and␣2
(I)chainsoftypeIcollagen.1
TypeIcollagen,themainstructuralproteinofthe extra-cellularmatrixofbone, skin,andtendons, consistsoftwo pro-␣-1chainsandonepro-␣-2chainthatinterweave,
form-ingarigidtriplehelix.Each␣chaincontainsN-(amino)and
C-(carboxy)terminalpropeptidesandacentraldomain con-sisting of 338 repeats of Gly-XY, where X and Y exclude cysteineandtryptophan,andwhichoftenare,respectively, prolineandhydroxyproline.Glycine,asthesmallestamino acid,istheonlyresiduethatcanoccupytheaxialposition ofthetriplehelix,sothatanychangeinaglycineresidue willresultinthedisruptionofthehelicalstructure.2,3
Mutations inCOL1A1andCOL1A2genesalterthe struc-tureortheamountoftypeIcollagen,resultinginaskeletal phenotypethatrangesfromsubclinicaltolethal.1
These patients exhibit qualitative and quantitative abnormalitiesintypeIcollagen duetothedominant neg-ative effectof the mutation, asthe mutantpro-␣ chains
areincorporatedintothetypeIprocollagenmoleculesthat also contain normal pro-␣ chains. As a rule, when there
is substitution of glycine in the ␣1 chain, the phenotype
willdependonthepositionofthesubstitution:C-terminal substitutions result in severe disease phenotype, and N-terminalsubstitutionsyieldmilderphenotypes.4,5Residues withlargelateralchainsorchargedresiduesarehighly dis-ruptive of the triple structure, regardless of where they arelocated.Differentphenotypeshavebeenfoundwiththe samemutation.6
Inaconsortiumcreatedin2007tostudyOI-causing muta-tionsintypeIcollagengenes,1,832independentmutations wereidentified;682resultedinthesubstitutionofglycine residuesinthetriplehelixdomainoftheencodedprotein, and150insplicesites.6
Based on clinical, radiographic, and skeletal findings, modeofinheritance,andmoleculargeneticanalyses,new OI types have been identified since 2006 through exome sequencing.Thepresentstudyaimedtoreviewthe classifi-cationofOIandtoupdatenewrelatedgenes.ThePubMed andOnlineMendelianInheritanceinMan(OMIM)databases wereused.7

ExpandedClassification
ThemoleculargeneticclassificationofOIhasshowntobe veryheterogeneous,withdifferentpatternsofinheritance andwidevariabilityofclinicalseverity.10
Glorieuxetal.11 describedanautosomaldominantform ofOI,similartoOISillencetypeIV,butwithdistinctclinical, histological, and molecular characteristics. No mutations werefound inCOL1A1 andCOL1A2and, therefore,it was called OI typeV (OMIM #610967) by theauthors. Approx-imately 65% of affected individuals develop hyperplastic callusafterfracturesor surgicalinterventions, considered apathognomoniccharacteristic.12Onlyin2012wereIFITM5 mutations identifiedin patients with typeV OI, the gene encodinginterferon-inducedtransmembraneprotein5,by sequencingoftheentire exome.12---14 Theencodedprotein hasaroleinearlymineralization,butitsmechanismremains unknown.10
In 2006, a CRTAP gene mutation was identified asthe firstgeneticcauseoflethalrecessiveOI.15Sincethen,new mutationsingenesthatcauserecessiveOIhavebeen identi-fiedbyexomesequencing,suchasFKBP10,LEPRE1,PLOD2, PPIB,SERPINF1, SERPINH1, SP, BMP1,and TMEM38B. Each of these genes received an OI type number in the OMIM database,following thesequence numbersof theSillence classification.
OItypeVI(OMIM#613982)isanautosomalrecessiveform ofthediseasethatcanbecausedby ahomozygous muta-tioninthegeneSERPINF1inchromosome17p13.3,causing amineralizationdefect.14Accordingtotheclassificationof Sillenceetal.,thephenotypeiscompatiblewithtypeIVor typeIII.16,17
OItypeVII(MIM#610682)isalethalautosomalrecessive formofOI,causedbyamutationinCRTAPgenein homozy-gosityorcompoundheterozygosityinchromosome3p22.It accountsfor2%to3%ofcasesoflethalOI.15
Cabraletal.18 describedaformofautosomalrecessive OI, called OI type VIII (OMIM #610915), which is charac-terized by white sclera, severe growth impairment, very poorskeletalmineralization,andbulbousmetaphyses.This formiscausedbymutationsinthegeneencodingleprecan (LEPRE1)inchromosome1p34.2,associatedwithsevereor lethalOI.
OItypeIX(OMIM#259440)isanautosomalrecessiveform ofOIcorrespondingtoclinicallyseveretypesII/IIIofthe Sil-lenceclassification.19Therearenoreportsofdentinogenesis imperfecta.Itcanbecausedbyahomozygousmutationin thePPIBgeneinchromosome15q22.31.
OI type X (OMIM #613848) is an autosomal recessive form ofthe disease that can becaused by a homozygous mutation in the gene SERPINH1 in chromosome 11q13.5. It ischaracterized bybone deformities andmultiple frac-tures,generalized osteopenia,dentinogenesisimperfecta, andbluesclera.SERPINH1encodesacollagen-binding pro-teinthatactsasachaperoneintheendoplasmicreticulum andthus,individualswithmutationsinthisgenehavecells thatdonotproduceovermodifiedtypeIcollagen.20
OItypeXI(OMIM#610968)isanautosomalrecessiveform of the disease caused by a homozygous mutation in the
FKBP10geneinchromosome17q21,alsorelatedtoa chap-erone defect.1 Patients withtype OI type XI have severe progressivedeformation andmayhave jointcontractures. Patientsdonothavedentinogenesisimperfecta.21---23
OI type XII (OMIM #613849) is an autosomal reces-sive form, which can be caused by mutation in the SP7

OItypeXIII(OMIM#614856)wasdescribedascausedby a homozygousmutationin the geneBMP1 in chromosome 8p21.25,26
Shaheenetal.27describedOItypeXIV(OMIM#615066), an autosomal recessive form characterized by varying degreesofseveritywithmultiplefracturesandosteopenia, withnormaldentition,sclera,andhearing.Fracturesoccur prenatallyoratapproximately6yearsofage.Itiscausedby ahomozygousmutationinthegeneTMEM38Binchromosome 9q31.
OI typeXV (OMIM#615220) has been designated based on the identification of mutations in WNT1.28---30 Keupp et al.30 reported that WNT1 hypofunctional alleles result in phenotypes withlow bone mass in humans. They veri-fiedthatmutationsintherecessiveinheritedgeneleadto phenotypesofvaryingseverity,rangingfrommildto progres-sivelydeforming,whichcanoccasionallyleadtoearlyinfant death.Theyalsodetectedfamiliesthathadearly osteoporo-siswiththeautosomaldominantpatternofinheritance,with aheterozygousmutationinWNT1.
TherecessiveformsofOIwithmoderatetolethal phen-otypes are caused by defects in genes whose products interactwithcollagentypeI.Mostrecessivecaseshavenull mutationsin genesencodingproteins involvedin prolyl 3-hydroxylationofcollagen (CRTAP, LEPRE1,andPPIB),orin those responsible for the correct helical folding (FKBP10
andSERPINH1).TypesVII,VIII,andIXarecausedbydefects in3-hydroxylation.1Thegenotype-phenotypecorrelationin recessiveformshasbeensuggested.31

Conclusion
In practice, in spite of the complex genotypicvariability of OI demonstrated in recent years, its phenotypes are still classified according to Sillence. Genotypic investiga-tion should be indicated, especially in cases suggesting autosomalrecessiveinheritance,aimedatgenetic counsel-ing.ThemolecularstudyshouldbeperformedusingSanger sequencingoftheseveralnewgenes,orbynext-generation sequencing.Exome sequencingis useful whenthere is no panelof available genes, or when the involved genes are notknown.
