Abstract excerpt
DNA sequence analysis of the protein S gene (PROS1) in 22 Spanish probands with type I or III PS deficiency, has allowed the identification of 10 different mutations and 2 new sequence variants in 15 probands. Nine of the mutations, 8 of which are novel, cosegregate with type I or quantitative PS deficiency in 12 of the 13 pedigrees analyzed. One of these mutations (Q238X) also cosegregates with both type I and...
