Three commonly studied mutations include the S mutation in exon 3 (Glu264Val or c2313T>A) and the Z mutation in exon 5 (Glu342Lys or c4627G>A), which result in reduced plasma levels of a1-antitrypsin, and þ1237G>A in the 30 -untranslated region, which may result in a decrease in acute phase levels [60].
