Homeologous recombination between AluSx-sequences as a cause of hemophilia
1 Jan 2004
Abstract excerpt
Although large deletions from the coagulation factor VIII gene, F8, are responsible for 5% of severe hemophilia A (seHA), few of them have been fully characterised. A detailed description of a large partial deletion of the F8 caused by unequal recombination between homeologous AluSx-derived sequences is presented. The proband, a case of isolated hemophilia A with a high inhibitor titre (5700 BU), showed a...
