Identification of a dysfibrinogen, the substitution of gamma308Asn(AAT) to Lys(AAG), using coagulation tests, immunoblot analysis, and allele-specific polymerase chain reaction.

Abstract excerpt

During the past 3 years, we encountered 12 new cases suspected of being dysfibrinogenemias, via plasma coagulation screening tests, which included determination of fibrinogen concentration both by thrombin time and immunologic methods. We performed sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis under reducing conditions and immunoblot analysis for these plasma fibrinogens. We identified two cases that...
