Quintuple alpha-globin gene: a novel allele in a Sudanese man.

Hemoglobin - 1 Jan 2006

Cook Rachel J, Hoyer James D, Highsmith W Edward

Abstract excerpt

Multiple alpha-globin repeats have previously been discovered in humans and other mammals. A quintuple alpha-globin gene (alphaalpha/alphaalphaalphaalphaalpha) was found in a Sudanese male undergoing evaluation for microcytosis.
