Sudanese (δβ)0-Thalassemia: Identification and Characterization of a Novel 9.6 kb Deletion.

Abstract excerpt

We report a case of δβ-thalassemia (δβ-thal) trait in an adult male originally from Sudan. Multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) was used to localize the approximate boundaries of the deletion, followed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification and sequence analysis of the junction fragment to determine the precise deletion endpoints. The deletion spans 9594 bp, with the 5' deletion...
