Alpha-globin genes were analyzed by the direct method of DNA mapping using alpha- and zeta-globin specific probes in a Thai family in which the proposita was an unusually mild beta zero-thalassemia homozygote. alpha zero-Thalassemia was found to be segregating in the family, inherited from the propo

An initiation codon mutation ATG-ATA of the p-globin gene was found in seven members of three generations of a family living in northern Sweden. This mutation, which has not previously been described, changes the initiation codon for methionine into a codon for isoleucine and will then result in a p

We have described a novel human globin gene mutation that produced in a Japanese family the beta-thalassemia phenotype through a post-translational mechanism. Substitution of proline for leucine at position 110 in the G-helix of the beta-globin chain greatly reduced the molecular stability of the be

The frequency of P-thalassemia alleles among Filipinos is estimated to be 0.02, although little is known about the actual mutations represented in this population. Here, we describe a Filipino family in which a child has severe P-thalassemia major. Molecular studies of the family revealed that the p
