Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Fibrinogen gamma haplotype 2 (FGG-H2) is associated with reduced fibrinogen gamma' levels and fibrinogen gamma'/total fibrinogen ratios and with an increased deep-venous thrombosis (DVT) risk. Two FGG-H2 tagging single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), 9615C>T and 10034C>T, are located in the region of alternative FGG pre-mRNA processing. 10034C>T is located in a GT-rich downstream sequence element...
