Non-anemic homozygous beta(o) thalassemia in an African-American family: association of high fetal hemoglobin levels with beta thalassemia alleles.

American journal of hematology - 1 Sept 2001

Abstract excerpt

We have studied a four-generation (23 subjects) African-American family with beta(o) thalassemia and high fetal hemoglobin (HbF) levels. The beta(o) thalassemia in this family is due to the splicing site mutation, beta IVS2+1G-->A, that leads to aberrant mRNA processing and the absence of beta globin. Two members of this family are homozygous for beta(o) thalassemia and are non-anemic. All family members who are...
