A Frequent Thrombomodulin Amino Acid Dimorphism Is not Associated with Thrombophilia
1 Jan 1991
Abstract excerpt
We report a C/T dimorphism in the thrombomodulin (TM) gene that predicts an Ala455----Val replacement in the sixth EGF-like domain of TM. This dimorphism has allelic frequencies of 82 (Ala) and 18% (Val) in a normal population. In a group of protein C deficient patients and in a group of subjects with unexplained thrombophilia the allelic frequencies were found to be the same as in the normal population. This...
