Abstract excerpt
Hereditary protein C (PC) deficiency is a thrombotic disorder caused by variants in the PC gene (PROC). In this study, we identified a novel variant, p.Leu173Pro (L173P), and a previously reported variant, p.Val241Leu (V241L), in two unrelated Japanese families with venous thrombosis. We investigated the mechanisms by which these variants lead to type I PC deficiency. PC expression vectors were constructed and...
