Abstract
In order to determine the gene frequencies of nine polymorphic sites associated with FVIII and FIX genes in the Turkish population a sample of 50-235 unrelated X chromosomes from healthy individuals were analysed by using PCR-based assays. The Turkish population was found to be as polymorphic as Europeans in the FVII and FIX genes. Analysis of FIX haplotypes revealed that the most frequent haplotype observed in European populations and Anglo-Americans was also very common among Turks. The present population-based study indicates that two marker loci, namely HindIII and St14 in the factor VIII gene and DdeI and HhaI in the factor IX gene, are highly informative and useful markers that can be used in DNA linkage analysis for the assessment of haemophilia carriers and affected fetuses in the Turkish population.

Abstract
Heterogeneous mutations in the coagulation factor IX (FIX) gene result in a bleeding tendency known as haemophilia B. The haemophilia B mutation database has a total of 2353 patient entries, including 10 of the estimated 1000 Turkish patients. In this study, a more comprehensive analysis of the molecular pathology of haemophilia B in Turkey revealed one large deletion and 33 point mutations in the FIX gene of 34 unrelated patients. Haplotype analysis using six polymorphic sites showed that the mutations identified in a total of 45 patients occurred on 13 different haplotypes and that each mutation was family specific.

Abstract
This review focuses on selected areas that should interest both the scientist and the clinician alike: polymorphisms within the factor VIII and factor IX genes, their linkage, and their ethnic variation; a general assessment of mutations within both genes and a detailed inspection of the molecular pathology of certain mutations to illustrate the diverse cause-effect relations that exist; a summary of current knowledge on molecular aspects of inhibitor production; and an introduction to the new areas of factor VIII and factor IX catabolism. An appendix defining various terms encountered in the molecular genetics of the haemophilias is included, together with an appendix providing accession numbers and locus identification links for accessing gene and sequence information in the international nucleic acid databases.

Abstract
Analysis of factor IX gene polymorphisms is considered the best approach for prenatal diagnosis and carrier detection of haemophilia B when the identification of the gene mutation is not possible. Studies involving factor IX gene polymorphisms in Black populations are scarce and essentially restricted to the North-American Black population whose composition is substantially different from that of the Brazilian and presumably other Black populations of South America. In this paper we report the analysis of eight factor IX gene polymorphisms in Brazilian Blacks: 5' BamHI, DdeI, intron 2 BamHI, XmnI, TaqI, TaqI, MspI, MnlI and HhaI. Characterization of the VNTR-like DdeI polymorphism revealed six different alleles: B, AB, A2B, A2B2, A3B and A5B, the last being described here for the first time. The 5' BamHI, DdeI, MspI and HhaI polymorphisms showed the highest heterozygosities (0.40-0.50) and are in linkage equilibrium with one another. 19 complete haplotypes could be identified in this population. Based on the results we propose a systematic strategy for carrier detection and prenatal diagnosis of haemophilia B in this population. The combined analysis of four polymorphisms (5' BamHI, HhaI, MspI and DdeI) provided an informative genetic marker in 85% of the females. The use of all eight polymorphisms allows information in 95% of females. Additionally, differences in gene frequencies and haplotype distribution suggest dissimilarities in factor IX gene polymorphisms between the Brazilian and the North-American Black populations.

Abstract
Mutations at CpG dinucleotides were delineated in the factor IX gene of 38 hemophilia B patients. When transitions at CpG were considered with those previously reported by us and those compiled in the factor IX mutation database, the following patterns emerged. Many CpG sites were mutated with high frequency, while two CpG sites were infrequently mutated (R29-->Q and R116-->TGA). Of the 6 possible nonsense mutations and the 14 missense mutations that would produce a nonconservative change at conserved amino acids, all have been observed to cause hemophilia B except A-10-->T and R338-->Q. By contrast, none of the 6 missense changes at nonconserved amino acids have been observed to cause hemophilia B. At those CpG sites that are frequently mutated, the rate of transitions is estimated to be 20-fold higher than transitions at non-CpG sites. Point mutations in close proximity to CpG dinucleotides did not seem elevated.

Abstract
Hemophilia B is due to multiple molecular defects in the factor IX gene. Over 80% of mutations are single base substitutions. By amplification and direct sequencing, 51 single base substitutions were found in the transcribed sequence of the factor IX genes of patients from 50 distinct families with hemophilia B. These include 30 mutations in 29 families not previously reported by us; of these, 12 are novel, i.e., not previously published in other series. Of the 51 substitutions in our overall series 23 (45%) occurred as C-to-T or G-to-A transitions at 11 sites within CG dinucleotides. It is estimated that CG transitions occur from one to two orders of magnitude more frequently than mutations in nucleotides that are not within a CG pair. More than one family had identical defects for 6 of the CG mutations. At 4 of these sites, most patients had different haplotypes compatible with distinct mutations. Non-CG-type mutations occurred throughout the coding regions with only one mutation in more than one family. The latter included 7 families with a 397 Ile-to-Thr defect that all share a rare haplotype, suggesting a common ancestor.

Abstract
Of the factor IX sequence changes that we have identified in 65 consecutive males with haemophilia B, 11 (17%) are the same mutation. This mutation is a T----C transition at base 31311 which substitutes threonine for isoleucine397 (ile397) in the factor IX molecule. The 11 patients are of Western European descent and have the same haplotype: Hinf1 (-), Xmn1 (-), Taq1 (-), BamH1 (+), Malmö allele = thr148. The frequency of this haplotype was estimated and the probability of the same mutation occurring independently 11 times in this haplotype was miniscule. We conclude that these patients have a common ancestor despite the lack of overlapping pedigrees. The clinical symptoms of the disease were consistently moderate/mild in these 11 patients, whereas factor IX coagulation values obtained from the medical records varied more than sixfold between individuals. However, when plasma from five individuals was assayed by the same laboratory concurrently, the values varied less than twofold. Thus, in routine practice, clinical severity may correlate better with the presence of a given mutation than the factor IX coagulant activity. The high frequency of the mutation at ile397 indicates that carrier testing in families of Northern European descent with moderate/mild haemophilia B can be expedited by first determining whether this particular mutation is present. We demonstrate here that the technique of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of specific alleles (PASA) can be used to rapidly perform carrier testing in families with the ile397 mutation.
