The present invention relates to recombinant blood coagulation factor IX (rFIX) mutants having improved FIX clotting activity. Three full length FIX proteins with combinations of mutations of amino acids important for functional activity of FIX and FIX wild type were cloned and expressed in HEK 293 cells.
