  • Title: Globin gene mapping in normal Hb A2 types of beta-thalassaemia.
    Author: Kanavakis E, Metaxotou-Mavromati A, Kattamis C, Aksoy M, Weatherall DJ, Wood WG.
    Journal: Br J Haematol; 1982 May; 51(1):59-64. PubMed ID: 7073990.
    Abstract:
    Globin-gene mapping of DNA from 13 families with normal Hb A2 beta-thalassaemia (both type 1 and type 2) failed to detect any difference from normal in their globin-gene arrangement. We conclude that deletions such as those responsible for gamma beta-thalassaemia or a 'silent' Hb Lepore are not responsible for this type of beta-thalassaemia in Greece.
