Abstract excerpt
A case of homozygous factor X deficiency arising from the inheritance of two non-identical gene deletions from heterozygous parents is described. One, a partial gene deletion, was localized to exons VII and VIII by a combination of Southern blotting and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of exon sequences. The other deletion, of maternal origin, probably involves the entire factor X gene. Restriction...
