This resource aims to provide both research and diagnostic laboratories working on von Willebrand disease (VWD) and von Willebrand factor (VWF) with easy access to the wide range of information available:
Searchable lists of mutations and polymorphisms located within and adjacent to VWF.
References for published mutation and polymorphism data.
ISTH-SSC guidelines on VWF nomenclature.
Descriptions of the various VWD types.
Annotated reference sequences for VWF.
Diagrams of the VWF gene, mRNA and protein.
Examples of multimer gels for VWD type 2 defects.
Downloadable protein structures of the VWF A1 and A3 domains.
Access to PhenCode, a resource connecting data from locus-specific databases (including the ISTH-SSC VWF Online Database) to the data available on the UCSC Genome Browser (Giardine et al., 2007).
