Abstract excerpt
A splicing defect with 201 nucleotide deletion in the factor VIII transcript due to IVS15 + 1G > T mutation inactivating this donor splice site and activating a cryptic acceptor splice site in exon 16 was identified in a severe haemophilia A patient. Allele specific amplification (ASA) method was successfully developed for direct detection of this mutation.
