Abstract excerpt
We investigated a family with prekallikrein deficiency, using both standard coagulation tests and molecular biology techniques. The propositus was found to be a compound heterozygote for a Trp383 stop codon and a Cys529Tyr point mutation. The former mutation was located in exon 11, the latter in exon 14. The propositus inherited the first defect from his father and the second from his mother. Both parents had...
