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.
It is this released matter that forms what is known as a planetary nebula. The planetary nebula is just one of four major types of nebulae. The other three are H II regions, supernova remnant, and dark nebula. Some of the more prominent nebulae are the Crab, Eagle, Orion, Pelican, Ring, and Rosette Nebula.
