Sickle cell anaemia –It is due to a defect in the haemoglobin gene. There is a single nucleotide or point mutation in the 𝞫 globin chain. ‘GAG’ gets converted into ‘GTG’ leading to the replacement of glutamic acid by valine at the 6th position. ...

Sickle cell disease is caused by mutations in the beta-globin (HBB) gene that contains instructions to make a component of hemoglobin. In people with sickle cell disease, at least one HBB gene copy contains instructions for making hemoglobin S, while the second gene copy may contain instructions...
The Locus Control Region Is Necessary for Gene Expression in the Human β-Globin Locus but Not the Maintenance of an Open Chromatin Structure in Erythroid ... Studies in many systems have led to the model that the human β-globin locus control region (LCR) regulates the transcription, chromati...

Dawkins in his The Selfish Gene (1) quite aptly applies the term selfish to parasitic repetitive DNA sequences endemic to eukaryotic genomes, especially vertebrates. Doolittle and Sapienza (2) as well as Orgel and Crick (3) enlivened this notion of selfish DNA with the identification of such ...
A disease that is caused by gene mutation is known as a genetic disease. The dominant or recessive mutated genes may become incapable to produce a specific enzyme or result in an inborn error of metabolism. Some common examples of genetic diseases are cystic fibr...
Sickle-cell disease is a group of autosomal recessive HBB (hemoglobin subunit β) mutation diseases. Pathologic variants of mutant hemoglobin cause hemolysis of erythrocytes, vaso-occlusion and immune system activation, which manifest in acute pain crisis, acute chest syndrome, stroke and some chronic...
