Abstract excerpt

AIM: To describe the molecular spectrum of alpha-thalassemia molecular defects in a population sample of Saudi Arabian patients from the eastern province. METHODS: DNA was extracted from 41 patients suffering from microcytic, hypochromic anemia. We screened the alpha-globin gene for deletional and nondeletional mutations. RESULTS: Besides the common Rightward alpha(-3.7) (64%), polyA mutation (AATAAA to AATAAG)...
