Abstract excerpt
The purpose of these studies was to determine the molecular basis of the phenotypic mosaicism that is a defining feature of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH). Analysis of T cell clones from a female patient revealed four distinct phenotypes based on surface expression of glycosyl phosphatidylinositol-anchored proteins (GPI-AP). When PIG-A (the gene that is mutant in PNH) from these clones was analyzed,...
