Abstract The molecular basis of hemoglobin H disease in a Black family of Canadian origin was investigated. Affected individuals had a combination of deletion and nondeletion alpha-thalassemia mutations on different chromosomes. Cloning and sequencing of the DNA of one member with the nondeletion form revealed a new thalassemia mutation, an A---- G substitution, in the initiation codon of the remaining alpha-globin gene of a rightward (-alpha 3.7) deletion chromosome. This mutation abolished an Ncol restriction site and therefore is detectable in genomic DNA by Southern blot analysis.

Abstract Restriction endonuclease mapping defined a partial deletion of about 1.35 kb in the beta-globin gene of a black American patient with hemoglobin S-beta zero-thalassemia and in his uncle with a beta zero- thalassemia trait. The 5′ endpoint of the deletion is about 600 bases upstream from the cap site, and the 3′ endpoint lies within about 500 bases from the 5 splice junction of the second intervening sequence. The deletion is different from that of a previously reported Indian beta zero-thalassemia allele, where 0.6 kb is deleted at the 3′ end of the beta-globin gene.
