Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: Mutations in the δ-globin gene are not pathogenically relevant, but co-inheritance of δ-globin variants along with β-globin gene defects can mask the diagnosis of β-thalassaemia trait. METHODS: Routine haematological parameters were carried out. Molecular analysis of β-globin gene mutations was carried out by CRDB, ARMS and DNA sequencing. δ- globin gene analysis was carried out by DNA sequencing....
