Marker and real-time quantitative analyses to confirm hemophilia B carrier diagnosis of a complete deletion of the F9 gene.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Approximately 3% of hemophilia B patients have major deletions in the F9 gene, half of which are complete. Marker and quantitative PCR analyses were employed for carrier diagnosis in a family of a mentally retarded hemophilia B patient with a total deletion of the F9 gene and neighbor genes. Both methodologies allowed the confirmation of carrier or non-carrier status.

Introduction: Hemophilia B is an X-linked recessive genetic disease caused by mutations in the coagulation Factor IX gene. Mutations in the Factor IX gene result in dysfunction or deficiency of coagulation factor of IX. Direct mutation analysis involves the ideal method for molecular diagnosis of the disease. However, due to the high number of identified mutations in the gen, the lack of a comm...
متن کاملMolecular Characterization of the Factor IX Gene in 28 Iranian Hemophilia B Patients
Background: Heterogeneous mutations in the human coagulation factor IX gene lead to an X-linked recessive bleeding disorder known as hemophilia B. The disease is distributed worldwide with no ethnic or geographical priority. Materials and Methods: The aim of this study was to characterize the factor IX gene mutations in 28 unrelated Iranian hemophilia B patients. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)...

Background: Hemophilia B is an X-linked recessive coagulation disorder caused by factor IX deficiency. Analysis of factor IX gene polymorphisms is considered the best approach for prenatal diagnosis and carrier detection of hemophilia B where the identification of gene mutation is not easily possible. Objective: To study the frequency of three factor IX-linked restriction fragment length polym...
متن کاملEfficiency of BclI Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism for Detection of Hemophilia A Carriers in Sistan and Baluchestan Province, Southeast of Iran
Background: Indirect genetic diagnosis using polymorphic DNA markers can detect carriers of hemophilia A. This technique is preferable in developing countries because of its simplicity and cost effectiveness compared to direct mutation analysis. In the present study, we examined usefulness of intragenic marker BclI restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) at intron 18, for carrier detect...
متن کاملRecent Advances in Hemophilia Gene Therapy
Heterogeneous loss of function mutations at F8 and F9 genes causes X-linked recessive bleeding disorders, hemophilia A (HA) and hemophilia B (HB), respectively. HA is clinically indistinguishable from HB and accounts for more than 80% of hemophilia cases; the former affects 1/5000 and the latter 1/25000 male births worldwide. In Iran, it is estimated that around 4300 HA and 900 HB patients are ...
