Nucleotide sequence analysis of a cloned deletion beta-globin gene from a patient with beta(0)-thalassemia demonstrates a 619 nucleotide deletion extending from the 3' third of the second intervening sequence through 209 bases of 3' flanking DNA. However, an additional novel heptanucleotide was identified between the deletion endpoints, suggesting a complex etiology for this rearrangement.
对一名β⁰-地中海贫血患者克隆的缺失型β-珠蛋白基因进行核苷酸序列分析,结果显示有一个619个核苷酸的缺失,该缺失从第二个内含子序列的3'端三分之一处延伸至3'侧翼DNA的209个碱基。然而,在缺失端点之间发现了一个额外的新型七核苷酸,这表明这种重排的病因复杂。
