Molecular characterisation of β-globin gene mutations in Penang and Kedah, Malaysia
Introduction: Beta-thalassaemia is an autosomal recessive disorder and it is a public health problem in the Malaysian Malays and Chinese. This disorder mainly results from point mutations, small insertion or deletions in the β-globin gene complex. Beta-thalassaemia major patients require life-long...
