We present the crystal structure of the LMAN1/MCFD2 complex and relate it to patient mutations. Circular dichroism data show that the majority of the substitution mutations give rise to a disordered or severely destabilized MCFD2 protein. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  The bleeding manifestations were: easy bruising, post-traumatic bleeding, bleeding after tooth extractions. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  Epistaxis, easy bruising, post-surgical or post partum bleeding and menorrhagia are the most common symptoms. Hemarthrosis and muscular hematomas may occur. The symptoms are usually mild. [orpha.net]

Etiology Mutations in a sorting receptor that recognizes carbohydrate ligands were characterized as the cause of the combined deficiency of coagulation factors V and VIII. [humpath.com]

Etiology Combined deficiency of factor V and factor VIII is caused by mutations either in the LMAN1 gene (chromosome 18; q21) or in the MCFD2 gene (chromosome 2). [orpha.net]
