Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Inversions of F8-intron 22 (Inv22) and F8-intron 1 (Inv1) are responsible for 45-50% of severe hemophilia A cases. OBJECTIVE: In order to improve the molecular diagnosis of Inv22 and Inv1, and to enable rapid discrimination of Inv22-type 1 and Inv22-type 2 patterns, int22h-mediated deletions (Del22) and duplications (Dup22), we developed a genotyping system based on a novel inverse shifting-polymerase...
