“…Causative gene defects can be classified into genetic variants affecting protein biosynthesis/secretion, resulting in low antigen or activity in plasma, or genetic alterations leading to the secretion of a dysfunctional protein. In FMCFDs arising from the coincidental concomitant inheritance of separate coagulation-factor deficiencies, a combination of different disease-causing genetic changes in affected factors can be detected [ 17 , 18 , 19 ]. In FMCFDs arising from a single-gene defect, such as combined FV and FVIII deficiency and combined deficiency of the vitamin K–dependent factors, genetic variants in the genes encoding proteins responsible for the intracellular trafficking of FV and FVIII, (multiple coagulation factor deficiency 2 ( MCFD2 ) and lectin mannose-binding 1 ( LMAN1 )) and genetic variants in genes encoding enzymes involved in post-translational modification and vitamin K metabolism (γ-glutamylcarboxylase ( GGCX ) and vitamin K epoxide reductase complex subunit 1 ( VKORC1 )) are reported [ 7 , 20 , 21 , 22 ].…”
