Description

F8A1 (coagulation factor VIII associated 1) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome Xq28. It is known for its role in the int22h homologous recombination region, which is implicated in approximately 40-50% of severe hemophilia A cases. The gene encodes a protein of unknown function, but its genomic context is critical for chromosomal rearrangements affecting the F8 gene.

Disease Associations

Disease category Pathophysiological mechanism Genomic evidence
Hemophilia A Int22h-mediated inversions involving F8A1 disrupt the F8 gene, leading to factor VIII deficiency. ClinVar, OMIM
Hemophilia A (severe) Recurrent inversions between int22h repeats (including F8A1) cause disruption of F8 coding sequence. OMIM, NCBI

Pathways

• No specific pathways curated for F8A1; involved in genomic recombination events.

Protein Summary

The F8A1 gene encodes a protein of unknown function. It is part of the int22h repeat region on chromosome X, which is prone to homologous recombination, leading to inversions that cause hemophilia A. The protein has no known enzymatic or structural role in coagulation directly.
