Multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification identification of 17 different beta-globin gene deletions (including four novel mutations) in the UK population.

Large deletions of the beta-globin gene cluster are problematic to diagnose, and consequently the frequency and range of these mutations in the UK is unknown. Here we present a study evaluating the efficacy of the recently available technique of multiplex ligation-dependent prob amplification (MLPA)...
