title: [Testing of G----A mutation in position 110 of a minor intron of beta-globin genes in patients with thalassemia in Azerbaijan].
abstract: A point mutation G-A in the 110 position of the beta-globin gene small intron has been revealed by cloning and sequencing from the material of a homozygote beta-thalassemia patient in Azerbaijan. In the present study two allele-specific oligonucleotide probes for testing the mutation have been synthesized. Assessment frequency of the mutation among the beta-thalassemia patients in Azerbaijan has been performed with the use of the amplified beta-globin gene fragments obtained by using the thermostable DNA-polymerase from T. thermophilus with the subsequent dot-hybridization in gel of the amplified material with the oligonucleotide probes. The possibility to test the mutation by hybridization of the oligonucleotide probes with the donors and beta-thalassemia patients restricted genomic DNA has been analyzed. Only one of 50 thalassemia alleles of beta-globin genes under study has been shown to possess the mutation mentioned.
