Context nucleotide sequence:
TAATGCCCTGGCCCACAAGTATCAC [-/AC] TAAGCTCGCTTTCTTGCTGTCCAAT  (Strand: -)
Comments: Insertion of dinucleotide AC between codon 146 and nonsense codon 147 (TAA), causing the elongation of the β-chain by 11 amino acid residues at its C-terminus. The resulting haemoglobin Tak has high oxygen affinity, causing secondary polycythemia.
