Abstract excerpt
Normal HbA2 beta thalassemia in a Greek individual was shown to be due to co-inheritance of beta and delta thalassemias. The genetic defects were characterized by enzymatic amplification of the beta and delta globin genes and direct genomic sequencing. Two children with a typical high HbA2 beta thalassemia trait had inherited the beta thalassemia allele whilst a third child had low-normal HbA2 associated with...
