Abstract excerpt
Type 2B von Willebrand disease (vWD) is characterized by an increased affinity of von Willebrand factor (vWF) for binding to platelet glycoprotein Ib (GpIb). Most type 2B candidate mutations are clustered in the 509-695 disulphide loop but three of them (H505D, L697V and A698V) are outside this loop. We confirm here that the A698V mutation is a type 2B mutation by its expression in Cos-7 cells. As the L697V and...
