MRC Molecular Haematology Unit, Nuffield Department of Clinical Medicine, John Radcliffe Hospital Headington, Oxford 0X3 9DU, UK *Vila Base Hospital Porta Vila, Vanuatu
Received October 28, 1981.
The first example of a duplication involving the human ß-like globin genes has been characterised in DNA from a native of Vanuatu. Restriction endonuclease mapping has shown that a 5 kb insert of DNA in the
-
-ß gene cluster is due to duplication of the G
-globin gene and results in a new rearrangement 5'-
-G
-G
-A
-
-ß-3
