There are several types of sickle cell disease, including sickle cell anemia, sickle beta thalassemia, and sickle cell-hemoglobin C disease. These types differ based on the specific genetic mutations that affect the hemoglobin protein in red blood cells. Sickle cell anemia is the most common and severe form, where individuals have two copies of the sickle cell gene. Sickle beta thalassemia and sickle cell-hemoglobin C disease are milder forms that result from different combinations of genetic mutations. Symptoms and complications can vary among the different types of sickle cell disease.
An example of point-mutation is sickle-cell anemia. Sickle-cell disease is hereditary.
