The COL2A1 gene encodes the alpha-1 chain of type II procollagen. Type II collagen, comprised of three identical alpha-1 chains, is the major component of cartilage. COL2A1 gene variants are the etiologies of genetic diseases, termed type II collagenopathies, with a wide spectrum of clinical presentations. To date, at least 460 distinct COL2A1 mutations, identified in 663 independent probands, and 21 definite disorders have been reported. Nevertheless, a well-defined genotype-phenotype correlation has not been established, and few hot spots of mutation have been reported. In this study, we analyzed data of COL2A1 variants and clinical information of patients obtained from the Leiden Open Variation Database 3.0, as well as the currently available relevant literature. We determined the characteristics of the COL2A1 variants and distributions of the clinical manifestations in patients, and identified four likely genotype-phenotype correlations. Moreover, we classified 21 COL2A1-related disorders into five categories, which may assist clinicians in understanding the essence of these complex phenotypes and prompt genetic screening in clinical practice.
