De novo factor VIII gene intron 22 inversion in a female carrier presents as a somatic mosaicism
2000-10-15
Abstract excerpt
Abstract The intron 22 inversion represents the most prevalentfactor VIII gene defect in severe hemophilia A, accounting for about 40% of all mutations. It is hypothesized that the inversion mutations occur almost exclusively in germ cells during meiotic cell division by intrachromosomal recombination between 1 of 2 telomeric copies of the Int22h region and its intragenic homologue. The majority of inversion mutat...
