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 revealed that the proband and her family members possessed an AAC insertion within the codon for Tyr-80 in exon III in...
