F2 gene full mutation analysis in Blood or Tissue by Sequencing
Active
Term Description
Full gene sequence analysis of the F2 gene to identify a pathogenic mutation associated with factor II (prothrombin) deficiency (F2D).[GHR gene: F2]
Part Descriptions
LP14459-9 F2 gene
Factor II DNA analysis: a point mutation (G20210A) in the Factor II (prothrombin) gene is the second most common cause of inherited thrombosis. The mutation substitutes a guanine with an adenine at nucleotide 20210. Up to 20% of inherited thrombophilia is due to this mutation. Incidence is 1-2% among Caucasians and 0.1% in African Americans. Heterozygous carriers of this mutation have prothrombin levels 30% higher than normal and have an associated 3-fold increased risk for venous thrombosis. The prothrombin is cleaved to thrombin which acts like a serine protease in the coagulation cascade. This results in the production of fibrin and promotes clotting activity. Mutation has also been reported in patients with idiopathic portal vein thrombosis, patients using oral contraceptives, and pregnant patients with placental abruptions and fetal growth restrictions. Up to 40% of patients with Factor II mutation also carry the Factor V Leiden mutation.

LP14459-9 F2 gene
The F2 gene (coagulation factor II (thrombin)) [HGNC Gene ID:3535] is located on chromosome 11p11. Coagulation factor II is proteolytically cleaved to form thrombin in the first step of the coagulation cascade which ultimately results in the stemming of blood loss. F2 also plays a role in maintaining vascular integrity during development and postnatal life. Finally, peptides derived from the C-terminus of this protein have antimicrobial activity against E. coli and P. aeruginosa. Mutations in F2 leads to various forms of thrombosis and dysprothrombinemia. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2014] [NCBI Gene ID:2147]

LP150045-5 Sequencing
Sequencing is a method used to determine the sequence of individual genes, larger genetic regions (i.e. clusters of genes or operons), full chromosomes or entire genomes. Historically, most sequencing has been performed using the chain termination method developed by Frederick Sanger in 1977. PMID: 271968 Sequencing technologies have improved dramatically, making them cheaper, faster, and more accurate. Next-generation sequencing (NGS), also known as high-throughput sequencing, deep sequencing, and second-generation sequencing, is a type of technology that uses parallel sequencing of multiple small fragments of DNA to determine sequence. This "high-throughput" technology has increased the speed and amount of DNA sequenced at a significantly reduced cost. PMID: 18576944 Several NGS platforms (ie, sequencing instruments and associated reagents) have been developed. Third-generation sequencing is another methodology currently under development that uses parallel sequencing similar to NGS. In contrast to NGS, third-generation sequencing uses single DNA molecules rather than amplified DNA as a template. PMID: 20858600
