Abstract excerpt
In three Italian patients, two point mutations and a short deletion were found in the intron 7 of factor VII gene, clustered in the donor splice site and located in the first of several repeats. The mutation 9726+5G-->A, the most frequent cause of symptomatic factor VII deficiency in Italy, as well as the deletion (9729del4) gave rise in expression studies to abnormally spliced transcripts, which were exclusively...
