Fig. 1

A schematic representation of the α-globin locus from the Haemoglobin Zeta (HBZ) to the Haemoglobin Theta 1 (HBQ1) gene. The approximate position of the gene deletions detected in the current study is shown. The location of amplicons targeting the HBA1 and HBA2 genes are indicated by the arrows A1 and A2, respectively. The CLCN7 gene is located approximately 1.3 million bases 3′ of the α-globin locus (not shown)
