Severe factor XI deficiency caused by compound heterozygosity for the type III mutation and a novel insertion in exon 9 (codons 324/325 +G)

Abstract: Summary. We investigated a 42-year-old Caucasian woman with severe factor XI deficiency and her family members. Restriction enzyme analysis and DNA sequencing revealed compound heterozygosity in the patient for the known type III mutation, which is a Phe283Leu amino acid substitution in the fourth apple domain causing impaired dimerization and secretion, and for a novel frameshift mutation in exon 9 (codons 324/325 1G), leading to premature termination with lack of parts of the fourth apple domain and the down… Show more

“…In the present study, we investigated the molecular basis of severe FXI deficiency in a Japanese man. To our knowledge, 34 gene mutations in patients with FXI deficiency have been reported to date [8][9][10][11][12][13]. We identified two novel mutations, a G to A transversion in exon 12 and a G insertion in exon 13, in the FXI gene.…”

“…FXI deficiency is a rare disorder most commonly found in individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry, but it has been reported sporadically in other ethnic populations [5][6][7]. So far, 34 gene mutations causing FXI deficiency have been reported [8][9][10][11][12][13], including three common mutations in Ashkenazi Jewish; a splice-junction abnormality (type I), a nonsense mutation in exon 5 (type II), and a missense mutation in exon 9 (type III). In this study, we identified two novel FXI gene mutations and compound heterozygosity for these mutations in a 25year-old Japanese male with severe FXI deficiency.…”

“…Apart from the type II and type III mutations, which cause a high percentage of inherited FXI deficiency in the Jewish population (12,13), increasing numbers of causative mutations have been identified in different ethnic groups by various genetic screening methods. For the purpose of mutational analysis, the use of automated fluorescent sequencing (11,(23)(24)(25)(26), SSCP (27), dideoxyfingerprinting (22) and denaturating high-performance liquid chromatography (17) have been described. We report the application of the recently developed multitemperature single-strand conformation polymorphism analysis (MSSCP) using the DNA Pointer System.…”

“…Accordingly, most of the mutations in the factor XI gene have been described in this population [2]. A smaller number of factor XI gene mutations have also been described in other Caucasian [3], English [4], Portuguese [5], Japanese [6,7], and more recently, the French Basque [8] populations. We describe the first reported factor XI gene mutations in a Chinese family.…”
