Abstract excerpt
An individual and an affected brother previously identified as having the variant prothrombin Padua I were studied in order to identify underlying genetic defects. A heterozygous mutation in the prothrombin gene exon 8 was identified as substitution of A for G at nucleotide position 7,312 (Arg271...
