A total of 123 beta-thalassemia genes from northern (n = 113) and northeastern (n = 10) Thailand were examined. Using five oligonucleotide probes, the mutation in 108 genes (88%) was identified: 50 nonsense 17, 49 frameshift 41-42, 4-28(A----G), 2 IV1 nt5(G----C), 2IVS2 nt654, and 1 deletion removin
In order to perform genetic counselling and prenatal diagnosis of Hb-S-beta-thalassemia disease and beta-thalassemia, we have delineated the spectrum of beta-thalassemia alleles in the Guadeloupean population. A sample of 63 unrelated families was analyzed including 70 beta-thalassemia carriers, 52
