which is caused by a mutant allele (Hb-) which in the homozygous condition in the past was often fatal to people at quite young ages. The mutation causes the formation of abnormal‚ sickle-shaped red blood cells that clog vessels‚ cause organ damage‚ and are inefficient transporters of oxygen. Individuals who are heterozygous (Hb-Hb+) have the sickle-cell trait (a mild form of the disease)‚ which is not fatal. Scientists were surprised to find a high frequency of the Hb- allele in populations in Africa
