Abstract excerpt
We used the chemical cleavage of mismatch (CCM) method to screen the beta-globin gene simultaneously for Mediterranean beta-thalassemia mutations. The beta-globin gene was amplified in two segments encompassing the whole gene and hybridized to a corresponding labeled PCR product from a normal subject. All the known mutations tested were identified and discriminated. Three beta-thalassemic subjects with previously...
