How can you use “hfe” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
No patient declined to undergo HFE mutation analysis after it was determined that he/she had a hemochromatosis phenotype.
In each proband in whom a single A or B allele was detected by DNA-based typing, we verified the allele(s) and set phase to ascertain haplotypes of the proband using HFE and HLA analyses of appropriate family members.
Some studies included probands, whereas others included probands and all family members with hemochromatosis; some required demonstration of segregation with HLA haplotypes, and others did not [ 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 ] . None used HFE mutation analysis as an inclusion criterion as we required in the present study.
For the present analysis, all haplotypes were defined only by A and B alleles, and the ancestral haplotype was defined as a hemochromatosis-associated Ch6p bearing A*03-B*07 and HFE C282Y.
For example, examination of the plots reveals that the hemochromatosis gene HFE, at 28 Mb on 6p, lies at the edge of a recombination 'cold spot' from 28-40 Mb.
