We evaluated FV mRNA in severe factor V deficiency caused by the -12T/A IVS18 mutation, activating a cryptic splice site and leading to premature translation termination. Quantitative evaluation of factor V cDNA from homozygous and heterozygous subjects, and correction for nonsense mediated decay, suggested the presence of 0.1% of normal factor V mRNA.
