We have purified factor VIII from a patient with moderately severe hemophilia A (FVIII, 4 U/dL; FVIII:Ag, 110 U/dL) and subjected the protein to Western blot analysis after time course activation with thrombin. The cross reacting material-positive (CRM+) FVIII has the normal distribution of heavy and light chains before thrombin activation, and, after incubation with the enzyme, appropriate cleavages are made at...
