Abstract excerpt
We studied the molecular basis of protein C deficiency in 28 Japanese families including 4 asymptomatic families. Two showed a decreased level of function with a normal antigen concentration consistent with type II protein C deficiency and the remaining 26 showed type I deficiency with decreases in both function and antigen level. All the exons and intron/exon junctions of the protein C gene were studied using a...
