Understanding Factor V Leiden Mutant Detection (G1691A Mutation)
Factor V is a protein that plays a central role in blood clotting. Normally, activated protein C regulates clot formation by inactivating factor V to prevent excessive clotting. However, a mutation in the factor V Leiden gene (G1691A) makes the factor V protein resistant to being inactivated, which can lead to a higher risk of developing abnormal blood clots, such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or venous thromboembolism (VTE).
Identifying the presence of the Factor V Leiden mutation is important because it helps ex...
