Factor V Leiden (rs6025 or F5 p.R506Q [1]) is a variant (mutated form) of human factor V (one of several substances that helps blood clot), which causes an increase ...

In factor V Leiden, a G1691A nucleotide replacement results in an R506Q amino acid mutation. Factor V Leiden increases the risk of venous thrombosis by two known mechanisms. First, activated protein C normally inactivates factor Va by cleaving the cofactor at Arg 306, Arg 506, and Arg 679. [24] The factor V Leiden mutation at Arg 506 renders ...
APC resistance is the inability of protein C to cleave Factor Va and/or Factor VIIIa, which allows for longer duration of thrombin generation and may lead to a hypercoagulable state. This may be hereditary or acquired. [4] The best known and most common hereditary form is Factor V Leiden, which is responsible for more than 95% of cases. [5]
In those who are referred for thrombophilia testing, 30–50% have the defect. The prothrombin mutation occurs at rates of 1–4% in the general population, 5–10% of people with thrombosis, and 15% of people referred for thrombophilia testing. Like factor V Leiden, this abnormality is uncommon in Africans and Asians. [14]
[1] [5] This ratio is inversely related to the degree of APC resistance. [7] The ETP-based APC resistance test involves the addition of APC to a thrombin generation assay (TGA). [5] This results in an inhibition of thrombin generation as measured by reduction of the endogenous thrombin potential (ETP; area under the thrombin generation curve). [5]
Human Chr 3. In terms of the cause of protein S deficiency it can be in inherited via autosomal dominance.A mutation in the PROS1 gene triggers the condition. The cytogenetic location of the gene in question is chromosome 3, specifically 3q11.1 [6] [7] Protein S deficiency can also be acquired due to vitamin K deficiency, treatment with warfarin, liver disease, kidney disease, chemotherapy ...
