A new unstable -globin chain associated with -thalassemia phenotype has been found in a Spanish patient. Molecular analysis of the -globin gene complex using PCR and non-radioactive single-strand conformation analysis, allowed to identify a new mutation in the second exon of the 1 -globin gene. Dire
DNA restriction, molecular cloning, and sequencing methods have been used to characterize the mutation leading to the methemoglobinemia HbM Iwate. It could be demonstrated that the HbM Iwate defect is caused by a point mutation involving a transition from C to T in the first position of codon 87 of
