Abstract excerpt
We report three new beta-globin gene promoter mutations identified in newborns with hemoglobin (Hb) profiles consistent with Hb S/beta(+)-thalassemia (thal) (Hbs FSA). All three mutations are in close proximity to the conserved ATAA sequence located at positions -31 to -28 relative to the mRNA Ca...
