Abstract

We report a case of juvenile thrombophilia associated with a substitution of leucine for arginine at position 338 (R338L) in the factor IX gene (factor IX-R338L). The level of the mutant factor IX protein in plasma was normal, but the clotting activity of factor IX from the proband was approximately eight times the normal level. In vitro, recombinant factor IX-R338L had a specific activity that was 5 to 10 times as high as that in the recombinant wild-type factor IX. The R338 substitution causes a gain-of-function mutation, resulting in factor IX that is hyperfunctional.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • All HA clinical trials use a B-domain-deleted FVIII transgene, and HB trials have universally adapted the FIX-Padua (FIX-R338L) transgene, which affords approximately 8-fold greater specific activity relative to wild-type FIX.

    “All HA clinical trials use a B-domain-deleted FVIII (BDD-FVIII) transgene, which retains full procoagulant function while meeting AAV packaging constraints (∼4.7 kb) and enhancing expression.187, 188, 189”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
