A 50 bp polymorphic insertion in the factor IX gene is readily detected by amplification and is in equilibrium with other polymorphic sites.

چکیده
A factor IX polymorphism 5' to exon 2 was described as 1.70 versus 1.75 kb bands on Southern blots of Ddel digests (1). By primer directed polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification, the two alleles are readily apparent on agarose electrophoresis of undigested fragments (430 or 380 bp); in heterozygous women or amplified mixtures of two hemizygous male types, an additional fragment (~480 bp) is seen (Fig. 1). On polyacrylamide gels, this fragment has very slow migration, suggesting an aberrant structure (perhaps a heteroduplex; not shown). In normal Caucasian and Black males, the frequency of the 50 bp insertion is 0.18 and 0.17, respectively which is quite different from relative frequencies of other polymorphisms (2, 3). It is absent in factor EX genes from Asian subjects (N = 56). In four families where other polymorphic analyses were not informative, the 50 bp insertion is heterozygous in carrier women; by calculation, ~30% of Black or Caucasian women will be heterozygous for the 50 bp insertion. The previous report (1) suggested that the Ddel polymorphism was in linkage disequilibrium with a TaqI polymorphism. As shown in Table 1, however, equilibrium is found between the 50 bp insertion by PCR and other intragenic polymorphisms including TaqI and Thr/Ala-148 (2), Hhal (4) and BamHI (3). Equilibrium accounts for the enhanced utility of the 50 bp insert analysis in carrier detection of hemophilia B.

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...

Background and purpose: Due to the high annual birth rate of thalassemia major in our country, its prevention by prenatal diagnosis is of important priority. Gene mutation remains unknown in 10-20% of thalassemia trait people in Iran. In these cases, linkage analysis using polymorphic sites which are located near or within the gene is necessary to follow the mutant or the normal chromosome. Ssp...

Acetyl-coenzyme A carboxylase α (ACC-alpha) is considered as the key regulatory enzyme in fatty acid biosynthesis. ACC-alpha gene is located on Caprine chromosome 11 and is polymorphic in many goat breeds. In the current study, we aimed to find possible single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the exon 1 region of the ACC-alpha gene in Iranian Mahabadi goat breed. Genomic DNA was extracted fro...

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...
