Abstract
Significant linkage was found between spherocytosis and a translocation involving the short arms of chromosomes 8 and 12. The gene for spherocytosis, therefore, is likely either very close to the centromere of chromosome 8 or on 12p. The unusually high frequency of spontaneous abortion in this family was probably due to this translocation and was unrelated to the spherocytosis.Entities:
