Alpha-2-globin gene polyadenylation (AATAAA-->AATAAG) mutation in hemoglobin H disease among Kuwaitis.

Medical principles and practice : international journal of the Kuwait University, Health Science Centre - 1 Jan 2005

Haider M, Adekile A

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: In the Arabian Gulf region, hemoglobin (Hb) H disease usually results from homozygosity or compound heterozygosity involving the alpha2-globin gene polyadenylation (poly A) signal (AATAAA-->AATAAG) mutation (alpha(T)alpha). Here we document the clinical and hemato logical characteristics of children with Hb H disease being followed in Kuwait. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: Twenty-four patients (0.5-12 years...
