Abstract excerpt
In an ongoing effort to identify point mutations causing beta-thalassaemia, we have found two previously unreported mutations which are located in the Poly A site of the beta-globin gene. The screening programme used amplified DNA and dot-blot hybridization with several 32P-labelled oligonucleotide probes. DNA samples which remained unidentified by this methodology were subjected to sequencing with 32P-labelled...
