Abstract excerpt

We evaluated the contribution of 67 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the beta-globin gene cluster to disease severity in groups of 207 mild- and 305 severe unrelated patients from Thailand with Hemoglobin E (HbE)/beta(0)-thalassemia and normal alpha-globin genes. Our analysis showed that these SNPs comprise two distinct linkage disequilibrium blocks, one containing the beta-globin gene and the other...
