Assessing the impact of a rare synonymous variant in the <i>KNG1</i> gene on the development of hereditary angioedema by N. A. Pechnikova, Yu. V. Ostankova, M. A. Saitgalina, A. M. Bebyakov, A. A. Totolian

“…Therefore, (1) the mutant high-molecular-weight kininogen is more easily activated by kallikrein and becomes a source of bradykinin formation through the kallikrein-kinin system; (2) the mechanism of bradykinin formation undergoes significant changes and results in the formation of functionally active but aberrant bradykinin, which alters its inactivation by enzymes with a consequent increase in its half-life, (3) the changes in positions 380-389 bring about modifications in Lys-bradykinin reproduction such that in subsequent steps it is “easily” cleaved to bradykinin by arginine aminopeptidase. …”
