  • Title: Genetic polymorphism of the A subunit of human coagulation factor XIII.
    Author: Board PG.
    Journal: Am J Hum Genet; 1979 Mar; 31(2):116-24. PubMed ID: 88180.
    Abstract:
    Utilizing a fluorescent technique for the localization of transglutaminase activity after electrophoresis on thin layer agarose gels, we observed a new polymorphism of coagulation factor XIII in both platelets and plasma. The electrophoretic pattern was that of a dimeric protein. Homozygotes gave a single band, while heterozygotes presented a three banded pattern. The polymorphism was found to be due to variation of the A subunit. Data from Australian blood donors indicate that the A subunit of factor XIII has an autosomal locus.
