Abstract excerpt
We previously concluded that genetic defects in the B subunit of factor XIII were the basis for former Type I deficiency (i.e. factor XIII B subunit deficiency). When we examined an Italian patient with the disease at the DNA level, restriction digestion and sequencing analyses of amplified DNAs...
