Abstract excerpt
We investigated the mechanisms responsible for severe factor IX (FIX) deficiency in two cross-reacting material (CRM)-negative hemophilia B patients with a mutation in the first and second epidermal growth factor (EGF) domains of FIX (C71Y and C109Y, respectively). We have determined the kinetics of mutant FIX biosynthesis and secretion in comparison with wild-type FIX (FIXwt). In transfected cells, FIXwt was...
