In order to delineate the spectrum and the relative abundance of beta-globin gene defects causing thalassaemia in the Portuguese population, a representative sample was analysed including 51 beta-thalassaemia carriers along with 26 patients representing different clinical phenotypes. Seven mutations
The level of beta-hexosaminidase activity in plasma and leukocytes and the frequency of three known HEXB mutations were studied in an Argentinean deme with high incidence of infantile Sandhoff disease. Two mutations were previously identified in one of two Sandhoff patients from the region, a splice
