Abstract excerpt
Clinical and genetic studies have led to the discovery of specific genotypes that predispose to thromboembolism in adults and children. The exploration of the underlying pathologies has revealed a broad variety of affected molecular mechanisms. Most recently, the functional analysis of the prothrombin (F2) 20210*A variant revealed increased efficiency of 3' end processing as a novel genetic mechanism predisposing...
