Carrier detection and prenatal testing for haemophilia B in Oriental populations have been hampered by the lack of informative markers within the factor IX (FIX) gene. We detected a T/C nucleotide variation at nucleotide 32770 in the poly-A region of the FIX gene in the mother of a haemophilia B child. Analysis of 139 unrelated alleles revealed a heterozygosity rate of 0.193, thus offering an additional marker...
