Hemophilia B is due to multiple molecular defects in the factor IX gene. Over 80% of mutations are single base substitutions. By amplification and direct sequencing, 51 single base substitutions were found in the transcribed sequence of the factor IX genes of patients from 50 distinct families with
By direct genomic sequencing, we have delineated the causative mutation in 64 families of European decent with hemophilia B. Six (9%) had a C----T transition at base 31008, which substitutes methionine for threonine 296 (T296----M) in the catalytic domain of factor IX. Five of the patients had the s
Recurrent int22h-related inversions in the coagulation factor VIII gene (F8) are the most common cause of severe hemophilia A. Such inversions have repeatedly been hypothesized to be associated with concomitant deletions that are responsible for an increased risk of immune responses against therapeu
