Abstract excerpt
In haemophilia A, linkage analysis with coagulation factor VIII (F8) intragenic and/or neighbouring extragenic short tandem repeats (STRs) enables indirect tracking F8 pathogenic allelic variant-carriers. Even where DNA sequencing is available, linkage analysis still has a role if no causative or candidate mutation is unveiled. The cumulative heterozygosity rate of the available multiplexed STRs haplotyping...
