Leu 697-->Val mutation in mature von Willebrand factor is responsible for type IIB von Willebrand disease

Abstract: Type IIB von Willebrand disease is characterized by the selective loss of high molecular weight von Willebrand factor (vWF) multimers from plasma and enhanced platelet agglutination of platelet-rich-plasma in the presence of low concentrations of ristocetin. We identified, in two related patients, a C-->G transversion resulting in the substitution of Valine for Leucine at position 697 of the mature subunit of vWF. We reproduced this mutation in vWF cDNA and expressed the recombinant protein in Cos-7 cells. … Show more

“…The multimeric structure of rVWF was analyzed by 0.1% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) 1% agarose gel electrophoresis [25]. Multimers were revealed using an alkaline phosphatase‐conjugated anti‐VWF polyclonal antibody [26]. Multimeric distribution of all rVWF mutants was similar to that of rVWF‐WT (Fig.…”

“…Plasmid pSV‐VWFH, containing full‐length human VWF cDNA, was a kind gift from L. Hilbert and C. Mazurier (Lille, France) [22]. The vector pSV‐VWF‐P1337L was generated as previously described, directly amplifying the patient's genomic DNA in correspondence with the mutation 4010 C > T [23].…”

“…Blood samples were collected into 13 mmol/l sodium citrate, and tests were performed on citrated platelet‐poor plasma samples stored frozen at −20°C. FVIII coagulant activity (FVIII:C), VWF antigen (VWF:Ag) level and ristocetin cofactor (VWF:RCo) activity were assayed as previously described (Hilbert et al , 1994). Measurement of VWF:FVIIIB was carried out in a solid phase system, as previously described (Jorieux et al , 2000).…”

“…Measurement of VWF:FVIIIB was carried out in a solid phase system, as previously described (Jorieux et al , 2000). Multimeric analysis of VWF was performed by 0·1% sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS)−1·5% agarose gel electrophoresis followed by visualization of the multimers with alkaline phosphatase‐conjugated immunopurified anti‐VWF polyclonal antibodies (Hilbert et al , 1994).…”
