We report the characterization of the amount of beta mRNA in a Kurdish Jewish population with beta0-thalassemia using the same methods employed for characterization of the Catania and Ferrara beta0 patients. We found very low amounts of beta mRNA sequences, consistent with the presence of beta0-thalassemia of the beta mRNA-negative population type. In addition, no globin gene deletion was detected that could account for the absence of beta mRNA.
我们报告了使用与卡塔尼亚和费拉拉β0患者特征分析相同的方法,对患有β0地中海贫血的库尔德犹太人群体中β mRNA量的特征分析。我们发现β mRNA序列的量非常低,这与β mRNA阴性群体类型的β0地中海贫血的存在一致。此外,未检测到可解释β mRNA缺失的珠蛋白基因缺失。
