Abstract
A novel amber mutation, a G to A substitution at the second position of codon 37 in the beta-globin gene that changes the tryptophan coding triplet (TGG) to a termination codon (TAG), was found in a Chinese beta-thalassaemia carrier. The mutant gene creates an additional Dde I recognition site and eliminates the Ava II site, so this point mutation can be directly identified by restriction enzyme analysis.
