DNA Testing Assessed in Childhood Sickle-Cell Anemia Diagnosis

Sickle-cell disease (SCD) is the most common genetic disorder worldwide. SCD patients are homozygous for a recurrent mutation in the HBB-gene resulting in the substitution of a glutamic acid residue with a valine amino acid at position 6 of the beta globin protein (E6V). More...
