Note: Factor V Leiden is inherited as an autosomal dominant trait requiring that only one parent pass on a copy of the defective gene on a chromosome other than a sex chromosome. When both parents carry the defective gene, factor V Leiden is inherited as a recessive, more serious condition....
Factor V Leiden is the most common inherited trait in Caucasians that predisposes individuals to venous thrombosis. However, it is almost absent amongst the Basque people that live in the south western part of Europe. To explain this finding, we speculate upon the putative contribution of various...

a.A change in the nucleotide sequence of the genome of an organism or virus, sometimes resulting in the appearance of a new character or trait not found in the parental type. b.The process by which such a change occurs, either through an alteration in the nucleotide sequence coding for a...
The Arg 506 to Gln mutation in exon 10 of the coagulation factor V gene (factor V‐Leiden) has been found to be responsible for over 90% of the APC resistance cases and is an autosomal dominant trait. Initial studies have suggested that this mutation is restricted to individuals of ...
