    Area of Science:

    • Molecular Biology
    • Genetics
    • Hematology

    Background:

    • The human hemoglobin system involves a complex of linked gamma-delta-beta-globin genes.
    • Thalassemia syndromes are inherited anemias caused by mutations affecting globin gene expression.
    • Understanding globin gene regulation is crucial for studying these genetic blood disorders.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the regulation of the gamma-delta-beta-globin gene complex in humans.
    • To utilize thalassemia syndromes as models for studying globin gene expression regulation.
    • To apply new molecular techniques for precise definition of globin gene structure and organization.

    Main Methods:

    • Restriction enzyme analysis of cellular DNA.
    • Cloning of cellular DNA fragments.
