Mutations in the MCFD2 gene and a novel mutation in the LMAN1 gene in Indian families with combined deficiency of factor V and VIII.

Abstract excerpt

Combined deficiency of factors V (FV) and factor VIII (FVIII) (F5F8D) is an autosomal recessive bleeding disorder caused by simultaneous moderate-to-mild decrease of both clotting proteins. Mutations in two components of the ER-Golgi intermediate compartment (ERGIC-53), i.e., lectin mannose binding protein (LMAN1) and multiple coagulation factor deficiency 2 (MCFD2), have been found to be responsible for this...
