Abstract excerpt
The results of a programme for the study of atypical familial microcytosis are analysed in this paper. The techniques used were "in vitro" synthesis of globin chains in tritiated leucine-labelled reticulocytes and genetic mapping with different restriction enzymes, plus the usual haematimetric values. Of the 134 syntheses performed, 73 showed alpha/beta ratio lower than 1 (alpha-thalassaemia). The lowest values,...
