Abstract excerpt
The molecular genetic analysis of protein S deficiency has been hampered by the complexity of the protein S (PROS) gene and by the existence of a homologous pseudogene. In an attempt to overcome these problems, a reverse transcript-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) mutation screening procedure was developed. However, the application of this mRNA-based strategy to the detection of gene lesions causing...
