In silico study on RNA structures of intronic mutations of beta-globin gene
2020-09-01
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Mutation of the beta-globin gene (HBB) interferes with primary mRNA transcription, leading to beta-thalassemia disease. The IVS1nt1 and IVS1nt5 mutations were reported as two of the most prevalent intronic mutations associated with beta-thalassemia major. These mutations may affect the mRNA structure of the human beta-globin ( HBB ) gene. However, the mechanism by which variation in HBB alte...
