Mutation: NM_000130.4(F5):c.1601G>A (p.Arg534Gln), also known as R506Q
Incidence: Factor V Leiden is the most common form of inherited thrombophilia, accounting for 40-50% of cases. Heterozygosity for Factor V Leiden occurs in 3-8% of the US and European populations and is rare in Asian and African populations. Frequency of homozygosity for Factor V Leiden in white populations is approximately 1 in 5,000.
Pathogenicity: The Factor V Leiden mutation consists of a G to A nucleotide substitution that leads to the R506Q missense mutation and causes Factor Va to become less susceptible to cleavage by activated Protein C, resulting in increase thrombin generation and an elevated risk for venous thromboembolism (VTE). See Table below for relative risks of VTE.
If this mutation was detected, genetic counseling is recommended.
Thrombosis Risk (odds ratio)**:
Heterozygous
First VTE: 3 - 8
With heterozygosity for the F2 20210G>A mutation: 20
With hyperhomocysteinemia 22 with use of oral contraceptive pills: 30
With hormone replacement therapy (HRT): 7 - 16
Homozygous
First VTE: 10 - 80
With oral contraceptive use: 100
With surgery: 20
With pregnancy: 20- 40
Risk of pregnancy loss: 2 - 3
