• Popis: The FVIII binding site on von Willebrand factor (VWF) is located in the D’ (766-864) and D3 (1054-1060) regions of the VWF gene. The cysteine residues in the D’ domain form disulfide bridges within the D’ trypsin-inhibitor-like (TIL’) and E’ regions,and these are of critically importance for the binding between TIL’E’ and FVIII. We analyzed the molecular etiology and laboratory phenotype of von Willebrand disease (VWD) 2N patients reported in the literature and added personal experiences from three European VWF VWD Research Centers.
