Abstract:
Reduced protein S activity is one of the high-risk factors for venous thromboembolism.Hereditary protein S deficiency is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by mutations in the PROS1 gene.We reported a female patient with a mutation of c.292 G>T in exon 3 of the PROS1 gene,which was identified by sequencing.The genealogical analysis revealed that the mutation probably originated from the patient's mother.After searching against the PROS1 gene mutation database and the relevant literature,we confirmed that this mutation was reported for the first time internationally.

There are five types of alternative RNA splicing that vary in the ways the pre-mRNA segments are removed or retained in the mature mRNA. The first...

Translation
Translation is the process of synthesizing proteins from the genetic information carried by messenger RNA (mRNA). Following transcription, it constitutes the final step in the expression of genes. This process is carried out by ribosomes, complexes of protein and specialized RNA molecules. Ribosomes, transfer RNA (tRNA), and other proteins produce a chain of amino acids—the polypeptide—as the end product of translation.
