Abstract excerpt
We identified two heterozygous dysfibrinogenemias, Bβp.Gly45Cys (Kyoto VII; K-VII) and Bβp.Arg74Cys (Iida II; I-II). The impairment of polymerization of Bβp.G45C has been well analyzed; however, that of Bβp.R74C has not. Thus, we compared fibrin polymerization between these variants. To determine the structural and functional characterization of purified fibrinogens, we performed immunoblotting analysis, kinetic...
