These studies are now being done by GWAS in 2 patient groups, examining both baseline HbF and the HbF response to hydroxyurea. Genetic modulation of sickle cell disease: Homozygosity for a single Î²-globin gene mutation (HBB; glu6val) causes sickle cell anemia.hese studies are now being done by GWAS in 2 patient groups, examining both baseline HbF and the HbF response to hydroxyurea.

Spiral Galaxies. Spiral galaxy M100. Spiral galaxies have three main components: a bulge, disk, and halo (see right). The bulge is a spherical structure found in the center of the galaxy. This feature mostly contains older stars. The disk is made up of dust, gas, and younger stars. The disk forms arm structures.
Confidence votes 32.9K. Our Milky Way galaxy is a 'Barred Spiral', type SBc. Edwin Hubble classified these types of spiral galaxies as SB (Spiral, Barred) in his Hubble sequence, and arranged them into three sub-categories based on how open the arms of the spiral are. SBa types feature tightly bound arms.
