Abstract excerpt
In the present study, sixty-two samples that have 1.5% and upper level of fetal hemoglobin (HbF), were examined to investigate the relationship between HbF level and non-deletional mutations in both Gγ (G gamma) globin (HBG2) and Aγ (A gamma) globin (HBG1) genes. Four variations were observed in the promotor of Gγ gene, which are -158C/T, -309A/G, -369C/G, and -567T/G. Also, four variations were observed in the...
