We identified two novel mutations in an asymptomatic 25-year-old Japanese patient with severe factor XI deficiency. Direct sequencing analysis of PCR products from his factor XI gene revealed a G to T transversion in exon 12, resulting in the nonsense mutation (Glu447Stop) and a G insertion in five consecutive guanine nucleotides ((501)Trp(TGG)-(502)Gly(GGG)) in exon 13 that is expected to lead to the substitution of the last 105 amino acids ((503)Tyr-(607)Val) with 32 abnormal amino acid residues ((503)Val-(534)Thr) followed by stop codon. We also demonstrated that two mutations are associated with the separate alleles in this patient, indicating compound heterozygosity for these mutations. Both mutations lead to the disruption of the catalytic domain structure of the FXI molecule and thus are responsible for his deficiency of factor XI.

D000483 Alleles Variant forms of the same gene, occupying the same locus on homologous CHROMOSOMES, and governing the variants in production of the same gene product. Allelomorphs,Allele,Allelomorph
D018389 Codon, Nonsense An amino acid-specifying codon that has been converted to a stop codon (CODON, TERMINATOR) by mutation. Its occurance is abnormal causing premature termination of protein translation and results in production of truncated and non-functional proteins. A nonsense mutation is one that converts an amino acid-specific codon to a stop codon.
