Background Hemoglobinopathies represent a set of inherited red blood cell (RBCs) disorders, characterized by abnormal hemoglobin molecule. They include qualitative and quantitative hemoglobinopathies, with a structurally abnormal globin chain in the ...

Expanding the Utility of Exome Sequencing in Preventive and Population Genetics
ABSTRACT Carrier screening is a long‐standing genetic testing process offered to at‐risk couples, with or without a family history, who might have pregnancies affected by an autosomal recessive (AR) or X‐linked (XL) disorder. A total of 276 unrelated individuals, initially referred for rare disorder screening by clinicians, were enrolled in this study ...

Role of novel and rare nucleotide substitutions of the β-globin gene
The Laboratory for Molecular Prenatal Diagnosis of Hemoglobinopathies at the Villa Sofia-Cervello Hospital in Palermo, Italy, carries out an intensive screening program aimed at identifying the healthy carriers of thalassemia and, consequently, the ...

Strategies and mechanisms of precision genome engineering: From gene editing to genome writing
In this review, we examined the progression of genome manipulation from stochastic nuclease‐mediated cutting toward precise editing and programmable genome writing. We discussed tools like multi‐kilobase RNA‐guided integrators and Artificial Intelligence (AI)‐designed effectors and showed how these advances enable researchers to treat genomes as ...

Elevated Hemoglobin A2: A Molecular Revisited, and Implications to β‐Thalassemia Screening
In Thailand, the Hb A2 cut‐off value for β‐thalassemia carrier has been changed from 4.0% to 3.6% since 2015. We examined the molecular basis of β‐thalassemia in a large cohort of Thai subjects with this change. The molecular basis of β‐thalassemia was updated, and a change in the Hb A2 cut‐off can alter this spectrum.
