Abstract excerpt
During the course of structural gene analysis of a family with type III protein S deficiency, we found a novel DNA polymorphism: an A or G variation at nucleotide 732 in exon 6 of the PS-alpha gene. This A to G mutation would lead to a substitution of Lys155 by Glu in the second EGF domain. Linkage study with restriction enzyme analysis using mutagenic PCR strategy showed that the same mutation was also present...
