Abstract Sickle-cell disease is a genetic disorder that results from the abnormal structure of red blood cells. The peculiar shape of the red blood cell prevents the normal absorption of oxygen. This disease results from the abnormal production of hemoglobin S (HbS). Therefore‚ a mutation in this gene causes a lower supply of oxygen to the cells‚ which results in occlusion of the blood vessels. Individuals diagnosed with sickle-cell anemia have abnormal function of the gene that encodes for subunit
