To elucidate the molecular background for the heterogeneity in protein S plasma concentrations observed in protein S deficient individuals, the in vitro synthesis of recombinant protein S missense mutants was investigated. Six different naturally occurring mutations identified in the protein S gene (PROS1) of thrombosis patients were reproduced in protein S cDNA by site directed mutagenesis. Tw...
