To clarify whether genetic polymorphisms in exon 14 of Coagulation factor XIII A-subunit gene (FXIIIA) affect phenotype expressions, we studied genetic polymorphisms in exon 14 of FXIIIA in a Japanese population and the relationship between the genetic polymorphisms and phenotype expression. Genetic polymorphisms in exon 14 of FXIIIA of 144 unrelated Japanese were analyzed by single-strand conformation polymorphism. Plasma FXIIIA antigen concentrations, FXIII activities, and phenotype were also determined by two-dimensional electrophoresis. The frequencies of the three genotypes, the homozygote (AD), the homozygote (BC) and the heterozygote (AD/BC), were 77.1, 0.7, and 22.2%, respectively. The gene frequencies of AD and BC were 0.88 and 0.12. We detected AD (GTT x GAG) and BC (ATT x CAG) at codon 650 and 651 of exon 14. There were no significant differences of FXIIIA antigen concentrations and FXIII activities between these genotypes. We detected three pl differences among them as being pls of 5.3, 5.6, 5.8 in the homozygote (AD) and the heterozygote (AD/BC), and a pl of 5.8 in the homozygote (BC). These polymorphisms affected isoelectric mobility, but did not affect protein levels, enzyme activities, or the molecular weight of FXIII.
