✦ Synopsis


Sickle cell anemia is caused by a mutation in the sixth codon of the p-globin gene. There is a vast range of severity in this disease, even among ps gene homozygotes . Five different haplotypes associated with the ps gene have been described, four in Africa (Bantu, Benin, Senegel, and Cameroon) and one found in both India and Saudi Arabia (IndiadArabian) (Chelbourne et al.,
