Abstract excerpt
We investigated the molecular basis of reduced functional levels of antithrombin (AT) in two individuals suffering from thromboembolic events. In each case direct sequencing of amplified DNA revealed 13,260-13,262 del in one patient and 2511C>A in the other patient, predicting a heterozygous E381del and P16H, respectively. Both patients had no 20210A allele and factor V Leiden mutation. To understand the...
