Abstract excerpt
Type IIA von Willebrand disease (vWD) results from abnormalities in von Willebrand factor (vWF) characterized by absence of plasma high molecular weight (HMW) vWF multimers. In this report, 5 distinct point mutations were identified in 6 Type IIA vWD families. A total of 7 mutations, all clustered within a 124-amino acid segment of the vWF A2 domain, now account for 9 of a panel of 11 Type IIA families. In COS-7...
