Abstract

The map of restriction sites including and surrounding the δ- and β-globin genes has been established for three Ferrara β°-thalassaemic subjects. The fragments obtained using nine restriction enzymes do not show any differences from normal DNA. Among others, restriction enzymes giving short fragments at the 5′ and 3′ ends of the β-globin structural gene have been employed. The results obtained for the thalassaemic DNA are identical to those for control DNA, thus excluding the presence of extensive deletions in or adjacent to the coding regions of the β-globin gene in Ferrara β°-thalassaemia.
