Genome Wide Association Study of Fetal Hemoglobin in Sickle Cell Anemia in Tanzania
BACKGROUND: Fetal hemoglobin (HbF) is an important modulator of sickle cell disease (SCD). HbF has previously been shown to be affected by variants at three loci on chromosomes 2, 6 and 11, but it is likely that additional loci remain to be discovered. METHODS AND FINDINGS: We conducted a genome-wid...
