Identification of two mutations (Arg611Cys and Arg611His) in the A1 loop of von Willebrand factor (vWF) responsible for type 2 von Willebrand disease with decreased platelet-dependent function of vWF.
Identification of three candidate mutations causing type IIA von Willebrand disease using a rapid, nonradioactive, allele-specific hybridization method.
Two new candidate mutations in type IIA von Willebrand's disease (Arg834-->Gly, Gly846-->Arg) and one polymorphism (Tyr821-->Cys) in the A2 region of the von Willebrand factor.
Substitution of cysteine for phenylalanine 751 in mature von Willebrand factor is a novel candidate mutation in a family with type IIA von Willebrand disease.
Defects in type IIA von Willebrand disease: a cysteine 509 to arginine substitution in the mature von Willebrand factor disrupts a disulphide loop involved in the interaction with platelet glycoprotein Ib-IX.
Germ-line mosaicism for a valine-to-methionine substitution at residue 553 in the glycoprotein Ib-binding domain of von Willebrand factor, causing type IIB von Willebrand disease.
Analysis of the relationship of von Willebrand disease (vWD) and hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia and identification of a potential type IIA vWD mutation (IIe865 to Thr).
Molecular basis of von Willebrand disease type IIB. Candidate mutations cluster in one disulfide loop between proposed platelet glycoprotein Ib binding sequences.
