Identification of two novel mutations in RASGRP2 affecting platelet CalDAG-GEFI expression and function in patients with bleeding diathesis

The RASGRP2 gene encodes the Ca2+ and DAG-regulated guanine nucleotide exchange factor I (CalDAG-GEFI), which plays a key role in integrin activation in platelets and neutrophils. We here report two new RASGRP2 variants associated with platelet dysfunction and bleeding in patients. The homozygous pa...
