Abstract excerpt
In an attempt to replace the existing, DNA-based, 50% effective, carrier and prenatal diagnoses of haemophilia A with the 100% successful direct detection of defective genes, a new procedure was developed to screen and identify mutations in all the essential regions of the factor VIII gene (putative promoter, coding sequence, and the cleavage and polyadenylation region). Genomic DNA and cDNA obtained by reverse...
