Abstract excerpt
Heterozygosity for a G-->C mutation converting the highly conserved Gln184 (CAG) to His (CAC) was identified at the last nucleotide of exon 7 of the protein C gene in two family members with deep vein thrombosis. As the nucleotide is a part of the 5 splice site of intron G, it was examined how the mutation affected splicing of protein C pre-mRNA. Relevant protein C cDNA fragments were amplified with polymerase...
