Abstract excerpt
Sixteen Danish unrelated thrombophilic families with plasma protein S deficiency of type 1 (or III) are currently under investigation in our laboratory for defects in the protein S alpha gene. The present paper describes a part of this work, which deals with the identification and phenotypical pr...
