Characteristic mRNA abnormality found in half the patients with severe haemophilia A is due to large DNA inversions
1 Jan 1993
Abstract excerpt
Surprisingly half of all severe haemophilia A patients have no mutation in the promoter, coding sequences and normal RNA processing signals of the factor VIII gene. Instead they manifest a unique mRNA defect that prevents the amplification of the message across the boundary between exon 22 and 23. This locates the defect to internal regions of intron 22. Novel sequences 3' to exon 22 were isolated from the 9...
