Factor V haemostatic diathesis impairing thrombin activation, membrane binding and circulating antigen level due to a novel compound heterozygous mutation, Leu1821Ser and Gly2192Cys
Bibliographic record
Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Congenital factor V (FV) deficiency is a rare clotting disorder affecting ∼1 in 1,000,000, with bleeding severity that ranges broadly for poorly understood reasons. AIM: To help understand the molecular basis of the observed phenotype in FV deficient patients, the genetics and biochemistry causing a patient's FV deficiency were evaluated. METHODS AND RESULTS: A 71-year-old female, who had serious life-long bleeding upon provocation and profound menorrhagia that lead to hysterectomy, was found to have 3% of normal plasma FV antigen with normal electrophoretic mobility. Platelet FV was similarly low, although the banding pattern was less fragmented than normal. Plasma clotting activity was <1% of normal. Familial inheritance and DNA sequence analysis from peripheral blood leukocytes were consistent with novel compound heterozygosity with missense mutations in exon XVII, Leu1821 to Ser (L1821S) and exon XXV, Gly2192 to Cys (G2192C). The respective single-mutation variants were expressed and purified. Explaining why the antigen level and activity were inequivalent, thrombin activation of recombinant (r) FV/L1821S was impaired, and rFV/G2192C was unable to bind to a procoagulant phospholipid membrane. CONCLUSION: These findings are consistent with the observed phenotype, highlighting the importance of understanding FV biochemical function to rationalize clinical bleeding severity when the circulating antigen level is discordant.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
