Abstract
⺠+ 1G donor splice site mutations virtually suppress correct gene expression. ⺠Complete deficiency of coagulation factor VII (FVII) is lethal. ⺠The F7 IVS6 + 1G/T induces exon skipping and use of an in-frame cryptic 5'ss. ⺠The latter transcript encoded a protein lacking 10 residues in the activation domain. ⺠The residual activity of this variant might have reverted a lethal condition.
