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 present a case of ␤-thalassemia intermedia involving a 13-year-old boy of Northern European descent. His mother, father and older sister have normal hematologic indices. Molecular studies demonstrate that the proband carries a novel mutation of the ␤-globin gene initiation codon (ATG→AAG) which s

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
