A new mutation in IVS-1 of the human beta globin gene causing beta thalassemia due to abnormal splicing

TL;DR: A G to T transversion at the fifth nucleotide of the first intervening sequence (IVS-1) of the beta-globin gene has been identified in cloned beta-thalassemia genes of two unrelated individuals, one of Mediterranean and the other of Anglo Saxon ancestry.
Journal ArticleDOI

Parental Origin of the Deletion 22q11.2 and Brain Development in Velocardiofacial Syndrome: A Preliminary Study

TL;DR: Children and adolescents with velocardiofacial syndrome experience major alterations in brain volumes, and significant reduction in gray matter development is attributable to presence of 22q11.2 microdeletion on the maternal chromosome.
Journal ArticleDOI

The entire beta-globin gene cluster is deleted in a form of gamma delta beta-thalassemia

TL;DR: This gamma delta beta-thalassemia deletion eliminates over 105 kb of DNA and is the first report of a deletion of the entire beta-globin gene cluster.
Journal ArticleDOI

Three common polymorphisms in the CYBA gene form a haplotype associated with decreased ROS generation.

TL;DR: The results help to unravel the complex nature of how genetic variations in CYBA influence NOX2 activity, and indicate that haplotypes, rather than individual SNPs, define the effect on ROS generation.
