Journal ArticleDOI

Characteristic mRNA abnormality found in half the patients with severe haemophilia A is due to large DNA inversions

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the mutations in the patients are inversions of long DNA regions possibly involving the repeated sequences and occurring at the surprising rate of approximately 4 x 10(-6) per gene per gamete per generation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Investigation of the factor VIII intron 22 repeated region (int22h) and the associated inversion junctions

TL;DR: The junctions of the inversions examined were shown to represent precise exchanges between the int22h repeats, thus providing conclusive evidence for homologous recombination.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of factor VIII mRNA reveals defects in everyone of 28 haemophilia A patients.

TL;DR: These results prove that all haemophilia A cases are due to mutations of the factor VIII gene where, unexpectedly, intron 22 seems to be the target of approximately 40% of the mutations causing severe haemophile A.
Journal ArticleDOI

Detection of three novel mutations in two haemophilia A patients by rapid screening of whole essential region of factor VIII gene

TL;DR: A new procedure was developed to screen and identify mutations in all the essential regions of the factor VIII gene (putative promoter, coding sequence, and the cleavage and polyadenylation region) and should lead to the rapid accumulation of information on the molecular biology of haemophilia A.
